I still argue that a better design would be to have the neck actually go into the side of the engine compartment like the stock box as opposed to sealing up against the panel with just a piece of foam trim.

Also reset the computer and with the better seal from the foam strip and the reset, the more aggressive CAI sound is there now. So disregard that note above.
Cool, glad I could be of assistance. Don't worry, I did the same thing when I first installed the intake. P in A to have to remove the box due to shotty instructions.
