Same for my 500. I cut the lid and run a stock paper filter. Runs just fine.

96 lt1 air intake system?
96 corvette has lt1 in it, i have melrose headers long tube and exhaust system thinking bout putting mufflers on it or just eliminators? but idk yet, anyways would putting a cold air inttake help my car run better? on websites they claim to also increase horses as well, if so which would be better, the vortex rammer- http://www.zip-corvette.com/ProductDetails/ProductDetails.aspx?pid={b51cc27c-f8f1-4817-845b-efd7a17c6d34}&gid={dae18543-89e6-4788-8a00-ce04732ffd9f}&GroupName=Performance+Air+ Intake+Systems&pname=90-96+Vortex+Rammer+Cold+Air+System+(Black) &Referer=&Alias=&ptct=SGR-SR&CTitle=&

The stock air box, piping system, and throttle body will outflow any stock 350ci. LT1. Even with mods as long as you stay 350 very little to be gained. I run cut air lid and K&N, why, I got it cheap $100 for both.

okk well i wouldnt mind having a nice bling, but is the performance the same? if so then i wouldnt mind spending the extra for it. i thought cone filters take up more denser air, but i have the money for the slp no problem, but my main question is if i get the slp is it the same performance as the cut lid?

My 92 has been over 127MPH in the 1/4 mile with just a cut lid/K&N on a stock air cleaner assembly....
Save your money and use it to do something worthwhile to the engine (like heads or cam) where it will have a real impact on your cars performance.
