What comes with a SLP Lid?

[bryceslu]

I just won an auction for a used slp lid for a 00-02, with AIR hookup. I am wondering what all comes with it? this looks like it:


Whats the long black strip by the metal band?

[KahanaReef]

That is the hose that hooks up to your air pump. I need one but can't seem to find one by itself!

[TRANS-DAD]

I think he means the flat strip, if so it's just a peel and stick rubber strip that sticks on the back side of the lid to help seal


oh and KAHANAREEF just delete the air pump and you won't need the hose , if not I think I have one

home depot son! thats what i had to do...go get a 3/4" rubber hose fitting with two male ends on it, then just go to the car parts store and grab some heater hose thats 3/4" and kablam!

That may work but none of that is pre-molded to follow the contours of the core support.

true but all you are recieveing from this hose is a small vaccume coming from the airbox...its just so no dirt gets in the airbox or in the hose...the home depot method works!

LOL, I see that now...

Yeah, the guy I got my car from put a 98 lid on it and just had the hose crammed under the frame. So, I just put a small air filter on it.

I've been trying to find the hose and connector for it but no one sells it separately that I can find.

I understand why it's there,,,I just like the looks of the pre-molded hose that follows the core support. A regular hose from home depot won't do that,,it would just kinda lay there and look a little ugly. It's just my opinion though,,,I'm a bit picky about details. Thats all I was getting at.

I do have an air filter on there right now, but, I may do that until I either get the right part or get a different lid all together. Thanks

Is that strip a necessary component?

[KahanaReef]

x2 just delete the air pump

How do I do that???

[Firebirdjones]

No.
I didn't use mine. I don't care for that sticky foam crap. deteriorates and falls apart in a short amount of time, especially if exposed to heat or the environment.

[Firebirdjones]

How do I do that???

You'll have to go into the tune and delete or disable the air pump codes. I also unplugged mine at the pump. From there it's up to you whether or not you want to remove the pump entirely or let it ride.

less bullsh*t under the hood haha

Ya he's right,,,thats about it. That thing does have a mess of hoses (3/4 inch hose) that runs around the back of the engine and turns into steel pipe before it connects to both exhaust manifolds. With this stuff removed it's much easier to change plugs and all around general maintainance.

I removed all the hoses around both sides of the engine and went with long tube headers without the provisions to clean things up a bit. But I left the air pump ride.

Will it mess with passing smog if I just have it taken out?

I'm in CA...
