tightening the airfilter

just a random post, but hopefully informative to some:

i was hearing more and more air escaping from the intake during part throttle, so today i got up, unscrewed the clamp for the air filter, pulled it as far onto the intake tube as it would go, then retightened the clamp (i have an aem cai) the result is the power loss i was noticing is gone, and now not so much air escapes part throttle (you know that pssssssssssh sound).

just a reminder if y'all wanna get the most power, to keep your mods in check

ak can only hope to improve
Thanks for the tip. Never thought that air would leak from there.
