You sure that you have it on right? You tightened the tie down tight enough?

prob because it is a 3 inch inlet on filter and the inlet on our afm is closer to 2.75

i have a filter that has 2.75 inlet, so i took off the rubber piece on the afm, and slide the filter on... fits tight and perfect.

you can make srue if you still have that rubber piece thing, and then wrap some electrical tap earound the whole thign a few times and ptu it back on and tighten it...

or do what i do and get a filter with a 2.75 inlet!!!
