A lid is a lid, they all have roughly the same gains. I have the Texas Speed and Performance lid on my car, It fits good and I like it. If you have not already read jrp's sticky you should, its has very good info in it, it should answer all of your questions. Heres the link for it https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139142

Texas Speed and Performance....their banner is over there ===>>
Their lid is the best fitting one i have found, noticable power gains too. Also look into the Fast Toys Ram Air, TSP should sell it. If not Thunder Racing sell's 'em.

You should have searched, or at least read the stickies. Read this:

You may as well read all of it, but intake parts are covered in post #4.
89 karr you should listen to unit and get that sig changed.

I got the MTI clear lid. I like it, it fits good and looks awesome!! A while back there was an article in GM HighTech Performance, and they all were pretty close in numbers.

I've got the simple SLP lid with smooth SLP bellow. Picked up both for $80 shipped (used). Some people will say these rub and they don't close, but never had a problem with mine. Bang for the buck, the lid is the way to go because you get similar gains with the lid as you do with the FIPK system.
