Default Intake making my clutch,brake,gas pedal vibrate !

I just installed my injen sri over the weekend and i notice that my clutch feels lighter to the touch but its nothing major but it vibrates now more then normal when i use it plus i noticed that my brake pedal feels the same way as well as the gas pedal. I know this is a weird question but could an intake effect any of this i kno the gas pedal would feel diff do too the increase in air flow but not the clutch or brake i kno the clutch cables are located underneath the intake but there is no way the intake is touching it. Ive also redlined the thing many times since putting the intake in and it drives fine with no problems i just dont get the vibrating on the pedals any help would be great !

If the intake is vibrating maybe? I've noticed some very minor and rare vibration from my K&N, and I plan on checking all the bolts and nuts tomorrow.

I can see how an intake would make the car vibrate at certain speeds, but I can't explain it very well due to my limited knowledge. In other words, if I tried to explain, I'd be talking out of my a** 50% of the conversation. Someone else take a stab at this?

I made sure all the connection's were tight the hoses are tight and the vibrating mount that came with the injen intake broke because its a pieace of ****. I took 1 of the stock airbox mounts and used that because its much stronger and bought a diff screw so now it fits real nice and tight but why would it make my clutch,brake,gas pedal's vibrate its weird.

Check to see if your intake is touching the master cylinder in the engine bay. This has happened to others with the same problems as yours.

What is the master cylinder could you post a pic and would this cause damage if the intake was near it for too long ?

It is vibrating on the Master Cylinder. Mine was doing it and I had to stick some sticky sided foam on the Master, No vibrations any more.
