SRI+hot weather=overheating (heads-up)

this is a heads-up to all AEM SRI owners.....ya'll know that there's some clearance issue with the hood and filter...if ya'll notice, your filter is touching the hood (no matter what you do to avoid it)....well anyways, it so happens, that the hood is pushing the filter down causing it to touch one of the huge coolant tube (in my case)....with the texas hot summer, my sri actually caused an abrasion and melted the top portion of the tube making a leak of coolant tube.......my car overheated suddenly and stopped, luckily i was able to call my friend to tow me to the honda dealership and it didn't overheat tooooo long....... i will be e-mailing aem soon to let them know about the clearance issue which seems a very minor problem that caused a huge problem....
