So not real sure.
An Engine mount will help with the engine moving. It doesn't look like an impact it looks like a scraping.

Ok fine... Your cheap ass intake with dirty ass filter is one of the shittiest I've seen yet. I mean that thing is just hanging there. No support for the filter just leaning on the body. have some self respect and take some pride in your work. Look at it! It's a 3 piece set up and it's a SRI. Not even the first gen aem cai was a 3 piece.

And clean your filter

You want to talk about pointless...pfft...

Your the one that wanted "elaboration." E-mouth? Would you care to elaborate on that? That whole your and e-thug no your an e-thug thing is getting really old.If your going to attempt to insult me than at least do it in an educated manner and not some 10 year old version of a metaphor. This is a public forum and you posted horrific pics of your intake...what did you think was going to happen?

And you were the one who said,"wow".No one here asked for your opinion at all.I didnt,OP didnt.So what you posted was not needed.This thread has been fucked over enough so im done arguing with you.As for "E-thug". I've never been called that before.Epic.Thats probably the most misleading thing you could have called me as for I am not a "E-thug" or a "thug" what so ever.Oh BTW sorry I dont make enough money to buy a $200 intake thats gonna be used for 6 months.This being the exact reason I sold my K&N intake that I bought when I first bought the car.Maybe next time you should know the whole story behind someones doing.Have a great day

I think you need to re-read my post...no where did i call you a thug and I gave my opinion because this is a PUBLIC FORUM. I don't care about your "story"...I could give a **** about your little sad situation you call life. I understand you feel this inferiority complex coming over and you need to make up for it but seriously, STFU and give it up. Your just making yourself look stupid

To the OP, as I stated before those look more like scrapings not impact marks. Either mess with the intake or find an aftermarket engine mount to help. as you can see in the vid below there is virtually no movement with the turbo tech racing engine mount. Very solid piece and a great investment.
