FTRA kit and SLP Lid??

Hey guys, my 00 Z28 A4 just has slp LM right now and I am deciding if the Fast Toys Ram Air kit and a SLP lid is a good choice to go together. I have read many reviews of how the FTRA kit is very good compared to the others. Tell me what yall think about that setup, I know most people say all lids are the same, but is there a better lid to pair with the FTRA? Thanks..

not to sure on the FTRA but a lid will definetly clean up the air box & give a couple extra ponies. Lid is always a good choice.

i have an slp lid with the ftra. the slp lid tends to fit tighter, and have better seals than others.

I did the flo-pac on the 98TA I used to have and it didn't feel any faster to me either.
On my Formula I just went with the Whisper lid and free ram-air. Again, I didn't notice a difference....but like they say - every little bit helps! Even if you can't "feel" a difference. That's why when I get some extra cash I'll get either the FTRA or SLP CAI.
