Default SLP Flo Pac...Worth It?

Anyone who runs it and like it?

I hear there is no point in the cold air intake in these cars, since they run cold enough already?

If so what should I do...just lid? smooth bellows too?

Thanks

bellows = worthless
K&N filter only if you really want one
slps cai= crap get the SSRA or seal the airbox to the lid if you have a WS6 hood

the lid is the only thing thats worth it

I have an SLP flowpac, I bought each part separately though, and it's worked great for me. I installed the SLP lid first, felt a little difference nothing big. I noticed the biggest difference after installing the SLP Cold Air Induction kit. I installed the bellow and MAF last.

Flo Pac is worth it if you can find it at a good price.

Flow Pac is great to me. I purchased the induction kit and love it. Looks great and there was a slightly noticeable change in performance. I have no complaints

what are people gaining from these at the track with an otherwise stock car (besides catback)? That will tell if they're really worth the money vs. SSRA.

We have been selling the Flowpac's for years, and never had an issue with them. Like any cold air intake...your not gonna see tremendous gains from them stock...but the gains do increase the more you mod the car. If anything, my experiance has been that SLP's stuff is engineered well, and lasts for ever.

To anyone interested, we also have the Flowpac's in stock and on sale-
