JCW strut brace and K&N typhoon intake
Do you guys know if the JCW brace will clear the K&N typhoon intake? It looks that it is about the same height as the JCW CAI in which case it should work. I just need to know for sure.

Old thread, but I have the same question: Will a JCW strut brace clear a K&N Typhoon CAI?

Just finished installing the Mini Mania JCW strut brace around my K & N Typhoon air filter. About 1/2 inch to spare.
I also noted that the strut box was a BMW parts box. probably could have bought it a lot cheaper from my local BMW dealer.

Just updated my "garage" with a couple pics. Check it out?
Also note that Mini Mania gets quite a bit more than $296 for their JCW strut brace. Maybe a good sale price, but not normal retail.
