Remedied the problem by slipping some plumbing pipe insulation over the metal beam between the intake pipe, problem solved. Going to trim it back and make it pretty today. Of course I had to by 4 48" pieces in a pack for just 4" that I needed.

Strut Tower Brace -- it's a beam that hooks onto the tops of the front shock mounts in your engine bay, which is intended to stiffen the chassis in the front.

[B]Steve, where di you see that a front x-brace is not necessary or useful?
I agree that a STB on this car is nothing but bling-bling but the x-brace has noticeable improvements on the street and track.

Thanks for the info from MUZ, Steve and Ludedude. I may just negate the STB and pickup an X-brace. Then again, it's all about the bling-bling.
