so i was at depot this morning and bought a roll of the foam tape
i put the foam tape on the lid, and when i pressurized the lid i noticed that alittle bit of air was escaping from the back part of the lid
my question is did you guys fully seal the lid or did you have some air escape.

torchd -well i did i use foam tape that is twice as wide as the tape you used so technically i did double seal it
all im saying is, is your lid 100% sealed or do you have a little air leak in the back.
if i push down on the back it will seal off

mine completely seals with one strip...i guess it depends on the lid and thickness of the weather stripping...

This is definately something that I must do. Going to pick up some weather stripping today. Thanks for the idea.
I also want to get the BG Ram air kit from speed inc. Looks to be pretty good.

ive got the ssra and it came with a nice rubber piece that seals the front of the airbox lid perfectly. but i never really thought about sealing the lid itself....until now. good job man
