I will be doing the LS lid swap on the car. I found someone that still has the FTP clear lids in stock and was looking at getting one. My question is would it even be worth the extra money to get that lid and do the maf, or i have a Blackwing that iv been sitting on for years that I was going to run. The Blackwing is mint but my only concern is the maf boot ripping, they are next to impossible to find.

 

The gains over using an aftermarket CAI are minimal but it's mostly a mod you do for the looks. Going with the Z06 MAF is cool too. Not necessary but if you want to go all out might as well.

 

I'm trying to clean up the engine bay also, wire, fuel line mods and abs delete (doesn't work anyway) doing the lid setup helps the look of the car. Also will be doing the SSRA maybe that will help a little.
