Welcome to CF. First mods.
Tune up if it hasn't been done in a while.

K&N or AMSOIL air filter. I have one of each and change them out when one needs to be changed. Then I can Clean and oil the other one any time.

Exaust system. I have Flowmaster Mufflers (2 Chamber) But there are others. If you have precats get a Ypipe with out them, or even better Headers. A high flow Cat will help a little.

Just my 2cents.

Welcome to the forum.

A cut lid goes like this. Picture A is the entire air filter assembly (stock L98). Picture B shows the section to cut out (in black) of the 'Lid' using a Dremel. Hope this helps.

Picture B


Good luck!
