Today's Discraft drivers are a little smaller diameter than the days of the Typhoon. I remember a Typhoon being fast and overstable, but not as overstable as the X-clone. I think that in today's molds, a Talon, or a Wildcat would work somewhat like the Typhoon.

They don't make Typhoons anymore?
Try: X2, Cyclone2, Eagle, Tbird, (non-x)Whippet, Viper, Predator
I'd probably recommend the predator first for Typhoon-similarity

'In the hand' a Talon has a shallow rim like a Typhoon.

That's what i think would be the closest. The Pred is too stable to be a Phoon.

Why bother? That disc was a POS the day it came out. There are much better discs nowadays.
