2002 SS SLP airlid with K&N filter? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Dukeboy01 · 06-10-2011, 10:25 PM

I'm getting ready to order my Father's day present, which is going to be a SLP air lid to replace the stock lid on my 2002 SS. I'm only going to be doing the lid at this time, not the full air box/ cold air kit with a new MAF sensor and all that. It's just going to be the lid for now.

The previous (first) owner of my car had already replaced the stock air filter with a K&N air filter, which is something I would have done anyway. Is a K&N filter compatible with an SLP lid? It seems to me that it should be since the filter goes down in the airbox and not up in the lid, but I figured that I would ask before I ordered the new part. I know that SLP does market their own high flow air filter (Nightwing? Blackwing? Something like that) but I'd just as soon keep the part I already have since it has less than 3000 miles on it and I can just clean it up if need be.

Thanks.

the K&N filter will work fine since the SLP lid goes on the stock airbox and the K&N filter was made to fit the stock airbox. I have the SLP lid on my 02 TA, looks soooo much nicer then stock. also, they sell the SLP lid w/K&N filter as a package so yea, no doubt it will work.

Thanks for the answer. Unfortunately the stereo head unit went out in my pickup this morning, so it looks like I'm getting a new stereo for father's day instead. The airbox lid will have to wait.

It's always something, isn't it?

the SLP lid is much nicer then the stock one and looks better under the hood too! i too would be putting a new stereo in the truck first, cant blame ya there.

did you check fuses?

Yeah. It's actually just the tape deck, but that's what I use to play my XM receiver and my MP3 player in the truck. It was actually the second used OEM tape deck I had stuck in it. I bought it six months ago from junk yard. What should I expect for $20, right?

I bought a decent aftermarket receiver with an AUX port, USB drive, and SD card slot. Works great.
