So is a lid a lid, or what?? I see all these different lids around. Are they all pretty much the same or what? I like the MTI clear lid, but is there any other lid that will do better?

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? They are basicly all the same except for price.... I think SLP is the cheapest...
While on the subject..... I have the SLP Lid, K&N filter, smooth bellows........
I kind of like the K&N FIPK better....
Anyone have any experence with this product?

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? i recall seeing someone do a flow test on the lids that measured cfm's and the direct-flo flowed better if im not mistaken. maybe it will come up in a search.

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? I went direct-flo (LS1 Motorsports). After readin' 1.2 million posts it seams that it has good construction. It also only has a sticker on the lid that can be replaced with the factory ram-air sticker if you care. Not sure thats true with all of them.

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? I went with a Whisper lid. I've had it for over three years now on two different LS1 cars that I've owned. Excellent quality, IMO. Direct Flow would be my next choice. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? There all about the same. However, I like the finish better on my SLP lid than the direct flo. The raised letters(SLP) are kind of cool. To each their own.

Re: So is a lid a lid, or what?? I have a Whisper Lid. I have had it from about when they first came out 3-4 years. It was on 98 Formula and now on my 2002 Trans Am. It is a good lid and with good gains. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
