Default question about wisper lid.

I have the wisper on my '02 z and was wondering something.....what do I do about the hose that was connected on the drivers side of the stock lid? It sucks in air just for a little bit while the car gets warm, but I dont know if it affects my performance. Should I try to cap it off, and if so with what...Any help is apprecited.

It is for your air pump on start up. Your lid should have come with minature filter aka breather filter. Install that in end of hose and secure hose somewhere out of way.

Personally I got tired of cleaning the tiny K&N. Began using a paper PCV filter. They're on the shelf with the rest of the fuel etc. filters. The casing is black plastic. Got the hose routed under the headlight & up behind the fascia.

The whisper lid doesn't come with that breather filter. You have to order it seperately. Just call up Speed Inc and ask for them to ship you one.
