lid or not

I just purchased a 02 z28 with k&n box replacement filter. i was looking on line at some high flo lids then i saw my filter for $350. Should i keep it?what are the power gains on it ?are will a lid produce more power?

Re: lid or not

if you have the fipk, or whatever its called, keep it. a lid on a stock airbox w/k&n might give you up to 10rwhp, but realistically 5-7

Re: lid or not

I would get a lid if you don't have one. You will feel better throttle response.

Re: lid or not

is this the intake you have?



if so you won't see any gains from going with a lid.

if all you have is the k&n filter under the stock lid....DEFINATELY get a lid.

please clarify

Re: lid or not

the slp cold air scoops sucks... it steals radiator air, try the ssra, but i dont think it will work since you need to seal your air box for you to get the ram air effect on it

Re: lid or not

correct the SSRA or similar setups dont' work with the K&N or volant intakes i don't think.

but if you get a ultra Z hood your system will work great.
