IS THERE ANY PERFORMANCE DIFFERENCE ON A LID FROM A K&N AIR SYSTEM? i KNOW THE K&N SYSTEM IS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN LIDS. JUST LOOKING FOR DIFFERENCES BEFORE I PURCHASE IT 4 MY 2001 SS. THANX!

 

Lid

 

LID all the way!!!

 

LID+K&N filter

 

JJ...car looks great man, just thought id tell ya

 

Another vote for the lid....IMO K&N FIPKs look horrible

 

Clear lid and K N filter

 

lid+K&n filter, also you will be saving alot of money and spend it on something else.

 

I'd get a lid and a Holley filter, it was less than the K&N when I bought mine and just as good.

 

I first got the K+N for the stock air box. Noticed nada.
Then got an SLP lid and K+N ..............Noticable
Then I got the K+N FIPKit and..............Watch out, plus it sounds like it wants to suck small kids off the street with it!!

 

my vote is for lid

 

Then I got the K+N FIPKit


The what??

 

this subject is just like commenting about LT headers. THey all make about the same amount of HP/TQ, but some buy stainless and others buy regular steel. The same goes for lids and K&N's FIPK. What I like about the K&N FIPK is that it completely changes the appearance of the engine bay and that the filter element is nicely trimmed in real carbon fiber. Just buy whatever you like best. Here are some pics to help you decide.

 

What does FIPK stand for?

 

that TA lid looks like fun!!!

 

Fuel Injection Performance Kit
I think

 

I wanna suck in small kids off the street

 

Who has a clear lid? MTI?

 

yup...but you probably already looked that up on their website by now

 

My vote for the FIPK,looks much cleaner
