So how did they adjust the "gap" to keep it from rubbing?

They said they believe the airbox was incorrectly mounted after it had been removed which caused the problem. I hope so as I don't want to have that issue again. I don't mind spending money on mods but not on replacing stuff that should nt need replacing in the first place.

Interesting. I was not one bit too happy about having to replace this part either, due to some tech not putting it back together correctly. The box assembly is roughly $1,500 USD! Unbelievable....now you've got me all irritated again about this debacle. : /

Cheers,

OK gents it's been a while as I've been working at sea all year but I'm home now and the car has had it's latest round of upgrades. I have just uploaded the latest video. I'm almost there now! This is about seats, suspension and detailing (and some other bits)

OK I have a new update. Finally had the suspension upgrade carried out. I can confirm it has transformed the car! Enjoy!
