Default Rubbing Issue

Okay, I've had my Injen Short Ram Intake for several months now. There always seemed to be a little rubbing with a cable near the filter. It was barely noticeable though. Today, I got my throttle body spacer and gaskets installed and now whenever I excelerate, the rubbing turns into a screeching noise. Anyone else have any fitment issues or can help me with mine?

Here are the pic's.

I would say for a quick fix cut some of the rubber elbow off. Better yet go cai.

you pushed the intake with the "adaptor plate" and now it doesnt go where it used to

2 things u can do are

1. cut the short ram to equal the diff of the plate.

2. throw out that adaptor plate that gives u 2hp lol

I would prefer a 80 dollar tb spacer then a 200$ intake which basically gives the same gains.

So you would rather throw away $200 instead of $80? And since when is the tb spacer $80?

You totally misread everything "I would prefer to spend 80 on a tb spacer opposed to paying 200 for a intake which gives about the same gains" Did even look at the page you linked?thats a tb gasket not the spacer heres the spacer http://www.corsportusa.com/sto...=1685. I would think someone with all those mods in their sig would know the difference.
