Need help with my SLP lid
Hey everyone. I'm currently running an SLP lid on my forged Ls1 with heads/cam. Is it restricting my power significantly? I currently have an LS1 intake manifold and plan on getting an LS6 one this summer. I have buddies running SLP lids on their T/A's pushing 500 off the bottle though. So, my question is, should I invest in a cold air intake such as a Volant one or some other company? What kind of gains are there to be made for a $250-$400 lid?

you guys that are recomending a bigger lid such as 98mm or 104mm etc...just the actual opening of the lid is bigger to fit the bigger maf correct? the insides of lids are all the same right?

your ls1 intake is more of a restriction than your lid. spending more money on a lid isnt going to net you alot more power in the long run.Id agree with 99Bluz28, if you want better air spend a little money on the SSRA.
