Default Should I get a Lid and MAF
I was thinking about getting a lid and an 85mm MAF, but is it truely worth it? What are some real world gains for these modifications. I need some sort of justification for spending $300.00 +.

a lid is a definite for these cars. the maf would be determined by power, are you going over 500hp?
