***2nd GROUP BUY POSSIBILITY*** - CUSCO Strut Tower Bar
tried to install once. but coudnt fit. so i did braces then bar...
okay. so far. not liking what's happening...
when i start my car, descendant CAI shakes and it's enough for the MAF sensor to hit the strut bar and make a 'clank' sound. then when i accelerate, under 40mph i hear squeaky sound... SSSOOOOOO... what now?

john,
to add more clearance, i decided to change the screw that the Descendant CAI bolts to the car (where the original snorkel is bolted)....i used leftover insulation currently. but i've also tried something VERY similar to what heydan to his (bolt + washers) CAI after not liking the bolt that came with the intake.
as for the squeaking...it will go away. just make sure that after driving it around (~around 100 miles, more or less) retighten the bolts of the bar to the brace. after some driving and letting the car get used to it. the squeak will go away...for me it only lasted like 2 days max. (cuz it took me 2 days to realize that maybe i should try to tighten the bolts) never happened again.

^yeah i remember what you did to your intake to give more clearance... so i might try doin that tomorrow...
i noticed that. i was like, 'maybe it's just like that on first day or so. just like springs.' ahahaaha

@kj I must say I am very very happy with the quality and craftsmanship of this strut bar CUSCO did a great job better than my expectations. It has me debating on wether I should install it this weekend or powder coat it prior to install. Thanks CUSCO!
