X-mas buying help I am looking at all SLP. A MAF, lid, smooth bellow, and strut tower brace. i have a 02 ws6 a4, does the airlid work on ram air? Does everything else sound good? Later on i plan for exhaust. Is the slp loudmouth crazy loud inside the car?

Re: X-mas buying help Yes the airlid works on the ram air. By MAF if you mean ported MAF there are some problems that i have heard about with that and an automatic transmission. Might want to look more into that before you buy it.
Re: X-mas buying help I have the SLP Lid, MAF, Smooth Bellows, and STB on my 02 SS. I haven't had any problems with mine. For the money I've spent (around $400) for the Lid, K&N Filter, MAF, and Bellows I'm happy with the increase in throttle response that I felt after installing the parts. That's just my .02
As to Tranny problems with using a larger MAF on A4 cars. The SLP MAF is calibrated to work with a stock PCM so you don't have to worry about it damaging your tranny. I believe the problems only occur with a stock, ported MAF that hasn't been properly recalibrated.

Re: X-mas buying help for sure get a lid and a K&N,bellow. I purchased the 300$ MAF and i guess i wasnt really satisfied for the money, the little hp you get. The stock MAF can support 400hp, so if i were you, i think its twice the fun to go pick out a catback exhaust <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
