hey mate
having the lid off wont harm it at all. u may loose a bit of torque but you prob wont notice it...
yeah does sound better, but if you want an awsome sound get a AEM V2.....WOW
regards, ben

You're taking in hotter air from the engine bay.

Here is a recent thread on K&N fipk installation. Great mod if you're looking for sound.

Its true, you'll loose both HP and TQ do to the heat soak you'll get from the hot air you'll be sucking in.
