Im Going To Mod It!

That's right! A lid! SO HAH! Dad wanted to buy me something for my 21'st tuesday and this is the best way to placate his desire to buy something. I am still not sure which one I want. Probably SLP since it comes stock on some. Will this lean out my air-fuel ration to a bad point? Does anyone have a stock +lid A/F dyno that they could post up? I dont want anything with exhaust as that richens things, just lid only dyno!!!
PS. I drove it around my appartment complex, scared to take it on the street because its so unreliable right now and I dont want it to randomly die in the path of something large on these wet roads (If I survived maybe I could afford an SRT8 or something nice?), but it was fun just tooling around, made 1 loop and parked
Meh. I feel better KNOWING that its my fuel system and most likely my fuel pump that shitted out. At least I know what is wrong and thus can fix it.

I noticed an audible difference when I put the lid on, especially at WOT. I'm sure there is a power difference too considering how large of a restrictive part comes off that the lid replaces. I think you are way too worried...

mod(less) level. Too much money for too little gain, IMO.

PS. With a stock tune, you're probably somewhere in the 11.x A/F range at WOT anyway.
