1999 Pontiac Trans Am - Bolt-On Inspiration - Part 2
|
MTI was the originator of the aftermarket airbox lid. In addition to both black and clear units, the company offers this attractive carbon-fiber-look lid for the '98-'02 F-bodies. The airbox lid retails for $129 and includes a rubber connection hose and band clamp from the airbox lid to the MAF. The smooth underside of the lid that is free of ridges flows cleanly into a round opening that optimizes airflow. A K&N replacement air filter was already installed when the stock configuration was tested, but you can pick up the filter as part of an air induction package with any of the lids, or separately from MTI for $49. After removing the factory air lid, the MTI lid is slipped into place and the band clamps are attached. The connection hose is retained with two band clamps that are tightened with a flat-bladed screwdriver to attach the lid to the MAF. Remember to swap the IAT sensor from the factory airbox over to the MTI lid and to purchase the optional K&N breather filter ('01-'02 models only) to keep your AIR pump functioning properly. When the rollers stopped spinning, the MTI lid increased power as well. View Related Article
