Which of these two ships would you recommend for solo and small group pvp situations? The training required for a tech 2 typhoon is kind of scary, and it seems to me the Sleipnir is almost as good or better in most situations?

I think both serve a good purpose in gangs, but imo the sleipnir would be more useful. Perhaps due to the fact that if need be u can place one gang module to boost the team and even so u woudlnt gimp ur dmg output because of the nice bonuses it gets; something the claymore doesnt have. Also the agility of BC's will be adjusted in kali so they wont feel as sluggish as they do now, so i think the sleip is the better choice.

Solo I think typhoon, not flown the sliepnir yet, but flying a cyclone I know its hard to fit a tank and PVP modules. I am also not sure on how the sliepnirs cap handles, as you may need a cap injector as well. This sliepnir isnt a bad ship, but I cant see anyone effectively soloing in one. Unless someone would like to share a decent setup 
For a gang I would say sliepnir...its uberness.

sleipnir needs its med slots sadly, tbh if i was solo i would use a tempest, typhoon is doable but again you have a problem with utility. Out of the two it would be typhoon, skill wise, the training is almost the same and you can cover more scenarios with a phoon than a sleipnir and for much less isk.

Med slots-
Large shield booster II (dread or better if possible)
Invifield II
Cap booster
MWD
Disrupter
+ a best named damage control in the low = great resists.

For solo the Typhoon takes the cake, clearly. It can do incredible DPS while maintaining a good tank and tackling and/or other EW. For small gangs, though, it's largely a matter of preference.

I like solo'ing in my sleipnir more, I use this setup atm:
7 x 425mm, med nos (the 425mm are my personal preference)
ab/mwd, med cap injector, 20k scram, invul field, xl or faction large shield booster
2 pdu/rcu, 2 gyro, 1 dmg control
simple but effective, does well against all ships except BS fitted for solo pvp. eos/astarte is not something Id cross blades with either.
But you want the typhoon because it can do better dmg, it can tank better, it has more different setups and tricks to it. Sleipnir is more pinned down on its setups, its good and solid but not versatile enough to beat the typhoon in actual use in both solo and small gangs.
Thats just personal view, doesnt take away the fact that the sleipnir is still very good ship in solo and gangs.
edit: id like to warn you on the headaches the typhoon can give when it comes to fitting
