Actually, all lids are not the same. If so, then why did some lids dyno higher than others? As much as 5 rwhp difference in a couple cases. Though most did see essentially the same power at the wheels, there were a couple others that were clearly not up to snuff.

SLP- 2.14 60' and went 12.94 @ 110.04
TSP- 2.20 60' and went 13.07 @ 110.00
If they all had the 2.10 short time that the MTI lid had the SLP would have been the quickest with a 12.90, and the TSP would have been about a 12.97 or so.
I just bought a SLP, because the build quality and fitment are great. My brother has one on his 02 Z-28 and it works great. Plus the one on my car, which I got when I purchased my Nitrous Kit is a whisper lid, and It doesn't have the best fitment.The Slp performed better at the track then my lid.

I'll give you a hint.. it's the same number you typed
Man I have SLP lid and I hate it compare to the FIPK that I had on 99 ss that got totald. If you are willing to spend the money on a lid then just get the FIPK. I am going to buy it soon and giving my K&N filter and lid to my best friend for his SS for FREE cuz I did not get the same power as the FIPK gave my other LS1

What's the normal correction factor for a rw dyno?
