Some do, some don't. The TSP lids don't, not sure about those.

Mine didn't have a hole. You have to buy a $20 little filter that goes on your a.i.r. hose.

Never touch it with anything except for a microfiber towel. It'll look new years later. ~Joshua

unless your car is a 2000+ plus you dont need to get that filter or drill a hole. mines a 1999 and has a hole for it already. the a.i.r hose is on 2000+ models but you can use a 98-99 type and just tie the a.i.r hise ut if the way. ws6store.com hhas the tiny breather filter

I have seen the small filters at Autozone.

I think he was refering to the IAT sensor hole. My SLP lid came w/ one. If you specify 98-00 it SHOULD come with the AIR system intake port/hole. (SLP lid at least) If you specify a 01-02 car, it would most likley NOT have the AIR system port/hole.

I like the MTI lids, very clean looking.

I love my MTI clear air lid , mine didn't have the hole i took a die grinder and made one and took the grommet out of the stock air lid and put it in the clear lid and for the little filter you will need it for the A.I.R. pump when you remove the air silencer.

Mine came with a hole and I'm not sure that I need it, because I plan on removing my AIR and EGR.

Is the IAT sensor part of the EGR or AIR?
