Default SLP Air Lid?

Will there be an actual noticeable power difference by adding a different air lid then stock??

I don't think you will notice a seat of the pants difference.

Yet again, I suggest the complete SLP intake package which comes with the lid, below and scoop thing.

Prolly won't feel it...but the extra power is there. Did a dyno pull on my car...completely stock at the time, and then changed stock airbox and filter out with SLP lid and K&N intake and got 5rwhp out of it...without any tuning. It definitely helps.

i didn't notice any difference in performance, but there was a noticeable difference in sound...and that made it worth every penny. and it looks a whole lot better, too.

I gained almost 3 tenths with mine. 13.80's all day long and afterwards it run 13.50's consistently. Dropped even more with the LM1 and Y. I don't know if anyone else had good gains with all of it but mine really responded well to it. My best run was 13.18 @ 106. 1.95 60ft. Stock.
