Default rattling after installing cold air intake

so i get it in, and when i floor it at about from 2.5-3k, theres a LOUD rattling. could it be the cai? its not mounted at all, its just connected at the TB and its kinda held in a limited space from the intake tube being in that hole that the stock intake originally goes thru. i think the tubing is vibrating against the rim of that hole when flooring it? i dunno but its really loud.

its just an ebay intake so how do u mount those things? how do u properly mount em should i say? they gave me like a 6 inch thing thing of metal with 1 hole on 1 end and 2 holes on the other end and this L shaped metal piece that has a hole on 1 end and I have no idea how to mount the intake using either/both. ne1 help me out? there is nothing on the intake tube to be able to use to mount to the metal pieces they provided me.

but the sound is nice . i can finally hear the vtec crossover in my lil y8

it should have came with a mount kit but you can allways make your own outta some thin strips of metal drill a hole in one side bent the other side into a L type shape and screw the side with the hole to the car and put the other side in the clamp were the fliter and/or were the pipes join
