Red flags

Typhon's own Amazon listing names a Kubota D902 in the title but a Kubota D722 (16.4 HP) in the bullet points; Typhon's site says D902 (source, source).
Typhon's manual index files the XVIII as '13.8HP', while the product page states 20.4 HP at 3600 rpm and 15.8 HP at 2200 rpm (source, source).
The XVIII product page and the XIX STORM product page carry the same GTIN 5061030740286, so the GTIN does not identify the model (source, source).
Typhon names no factory; an owner on a forum says the XVIII is built by Hightop (unverified; tbn-terror-thread).
