I have a stock 2000 camaro ss 6-speed and it has the optional exhaust and i was wondering if i were to purchase a lid and put it on would i be able to tell the difference with the seat of the pants feel?

Yea, you should be able to. A lid is like the fundamental mod anyway.

Yeah, I already had a cat-back on my car, and didn't notice a whole lot from the cat-back itself, but when I installed the lid there was a HUGE difference, especially up top. The stock lids on these cars suck and really hold the car back.

no, no real diffrence.. it feels faster becuase there is a sucking sound.. but thats about it. i saw no trap or ET improvement

It is mainly in your head, but I think a dyno will yield that you did gain something from it.

my car had zero wheel hop before the lid. after the lid i couldnt keep the tires on the ground.

so then i had a field day on the spohn website, no more problems

^^^^^^^^
You got that much power from a lid? Did it come with a intake attatched to it?

once you get into high rpm's you will feel a diference, not a SOTP, but something, but i think everyone will agree that it should be one of the first mods you should do to your car!!

you cant really feel a diffrence with just the lid, but the lid helps the other mods work better... a lid should be the 1st mod on an ls1 fbody....and i love the whistle sound BTW

with the slp lid and a k&n (160$)i felt a difference on top,and better throttle response.porting the tb helped just as much

felt more with headers, maybe because my lid was on when i bought the car!

Personally, I didn't feel a diffrence. I definatly could hear a diffrence though. But, without a doubt should be the first mod you do.

You're going to feel alot from the headers, esp. after a good tune. A lid is the first fundamental mod IMO. I felt a little difference, but nothing that would blow you away.
