Default 99' SLP lid on an 01 WS6?

Will it fit? It came off a 99 T/A. If so, good, if not, why not?

Its because of A.I.R. emission.

Not really, it will fit but the 99-00 lids I believe don't have a hole in the drivers side for your A.I.R hose whereas the 01-02 SLP lids have the hole but it will fit but I am unsure how not having the A.I.R tube plugged in will affect the car, hell just remove the whole thing and if it throws a code have it tuned out

I am not going to do some hack job installation with a little K&N filter on the end of the AIR hose. I would rather just buy the right product.

ha I feel like with your post count you would know this. And I would def. just but an slp lid for 00-02. Ws6 store has free shipping right now, but they are on back order. I was wanting to get one as well.

Yeah, I will see if I cannot just snag the right part. I hate rigged ****. I would rather be stock than have some half-*** mod.

SLP doesn't make the 98-00 non hole on the side lid anymore, they're all 01-02 lid's with holes on the side for IAT and AIR, but come with a cap that you can press in to the air tube if you don't use it.

I ordered a 98 SLP lid back in 05 when I got my car and I had a bitch of a time pressing in that cap, but once in it seals well. So if it was purchased within the last 5 years or so, it'd probably be the same in that sense.

Another thing is, it's just a hole that SLP drills into the side. No use having 2 different molds. Save yourself the cash and drill it yourself.

I am sure I could buy the tubing from SLP and I am getting a *decent* deal on the lid. It may well have the hold already in it. It came off a 99 TA and I am un-sure when it was purchased (the lid). I guess I will find out when I get there.

Remove the air pump it's gay anyway and install that lid. I'm surprised your car is still stock.. stock isn't the way to go even if you have have the smallest bolt ons

How is that a hack job? I just went to Advance Auto and bought a cheap $5 or so filter that fits in the end of the hose perfectly. I just stuck the end of it down behind the headlight. I have not had any problems with it.

if you buy a Whisper lid, you have to put a breather on the end of the hose. if you want, when you get the lid, just drill a hole in the side of the air box lid, idk what size it is, and stick your AIR hose in there like its supposed to be and call it a day.
