The AEM is a BIG filter and very hard to fit under the hood. What you see is where it rubs on the hood. When I had mine installed they dented it themselves to prevent the rubbing. Personally I think their solution was worse than the problem. Now I have a big *** dent in my filter, and it looks like ca-ca.

Yea the AEM filter is pretty big. I called AEM and told them mine was rubbing against the hood and the sent me a new, little bit smaller, one

Here's the new one...no rubbing probs at all!!

Here's the removed old one
The hood was rubbing the red stuff off and the Intercooler tank smashed the top part of the filter.

No way! They replaced it just like that? Thanks for the info. I will try the same thing.

Now that it is back, has anyone dyno'd this piece by itself to see what kind of power it nets? AEM doesn't show a dyno on their site like they do their other intakes, so I guess that should tell me something.
