Default Whisper Lid CAI kit vs. SLP CAI kit

I am new to LS1 cars and I was wondering what is the difference (if any) between the Whisper Lid CAI vs. the SLP CAI.

Not sure of the difference, but the SLP CAI works very well for me. Easy install. Just fyi.

I had a whisper lid for a while. It never wanted to stay clipped shut. It kept popping loose. It seemed to work well other than that. I would go with the SLP if I had to do it again though.

SLP lid has great fitment in all of the cars I've seen it on. Mostly, a lid is a lid is a lid.

I would get a SLP lid and a Fast Toys Ram Air Kit

This thread is like going to Chicago for the first time and by chance meeting all the Cardinal fans in the whole city in one room. "Can you believe it? Everyone in Chicago is a Cards fan!"

I have the Fast Toys ram air kit with Whisper lid on my 02 Formula and it works great; I'm very happy with it. You can hear the intake now and there's a slight "seat of the pants" difference.

If you don't want the Fast Toys ram air kit, you can always do the "free ram air" mod, directions are available at installuniversity.com and probably around here, too.
