Its best to do both at the same time. They tend to generate around the same hp when you are going 60 plus mph. If I only had to choose one though it would definitly be a lid.

Yep, and I haven't done the ram air yet (not sure if I will) for a few reasons, but the lid is about the same hp increase, and it adds aesthetic value (i.e. it looks purty).

All lids are with in a couple hp of the other. But the SLP lid and TSP lid seem to seal the best, and there was a test in GM High Tech that showed these 2 gave the best gains.

How do you do both SSRA and FTRA?? Arent they the same concept. What are the gains after a lid AND FTRA...does the lid already provide enough making the ram air injection system less useful?
