its just an aftermarket lid...hard to tell which one it is. my TSP lid is just black like that one, but so are alot of other ones. Theyre all basically the same, so it doesnt matter. And the k&n sticker is just for the filter, not the lid. They dont make lids

The shift point depends on what is done to the car.

well the stock rev limiter is 6200 right? so somethin must be done to it. I am setting mine to 5600 when I get it, that way it will come on, I will hesitate for 1 second which will take me to like 5800, and thats a good shift point stock.
