EVO V-Flow

For those who have the V-Flow installed - with the rear deck lid open and looking down at the "box" that the air filter itself is in - how much clearance is there between the right side of the box (the rubber seal) and the back of the engine compartment?

My V-Flow fits nice and snug on the left side, but the right side has a space of about 1" from the lip of the engine compartment all the way down to the botton where the air box sits.

Dock,

Does this help? On the left side, the rubber gasket lightly touches the rear of the compartment, slightly indenting the rubber seal. On the right, I have approximately a 1/8" gap at the corresponding spot that the left side is touching.

Thanks, that's exactly the kind of feedback I am looking for.

My left side clearance is just like yours, but my right side has a 1" gap top to bottom. I'm wondering how much hot air from the engine compartment is entering the air box through this 1" gap.

Mine is actually lightly touching equally on both sides.
