Yeah dude thats way too close for comfort. You're going to burn your car down. Take a full engine bay pic, and wrap something around that pipe near the terminals so it doesn't make contact while you're driving.

It just doesn't look like it's in there right, put some tape or something over your battery terminal till you figure it out....

alright but the pic is bad, the pipe isnt close to the top terminal and is only hitting plastic and rubber, is to the side of the battery not on top

You could cut the pipe shorter where it goes into the throttle body coupler.... -_-

then it would move the whole system closer to the engine and away from the battery, if your close up pictures are of any reference to what the overall engine bay looks like.

Throttle body diameter is 2.75"

i played with it today, sry the pics are out of order, I think general heat from the engine has loosed the elbow up so i could get some more play out of it
i put tape around the pipe by the battery and put a think over my audio terminal
also ive put a little rustoleum on to the tape where the battery was hitting, this is so i can see if its still hitting, plus a little rustoleum when only help on the spot where it rubbed the hood

Step one: remove tape, looks like ass

OK as for the set-up it really looks like the piping isn't in the elbow far enough like I said in an eariler post. Still tooo close to the postive terminal of the battery

Isn't there a bracket with this kit?

Dude, You have the elbow up side down! It should be that the longer side goes to the intake why the shorter side connects to your throttle body. It took you two pages to figure this out?????
