So with my new AWIC install the clearance between the intercooler, the strut tower, and the CAS is tight.
Now, officially I can't change engine parts for my class but I can alter anything related to engine control. That means that the CAS - which is ultimately a component of the EFI system - is a little bit of a gray area. I'm thinking of exploiting this to see if I can get a bit more clearance. The question is, based on the above image, might I get a little more wiggle room by switching to a black_top? I know they have a domed top which may help since the interference is only over about a third of the current CAS. But, does anybody have one of each to compare the overall mounting depth? Or would somebody with a black_top be willing to take a careful measurement of it's thickness from flange to dome peak? If the black top is not only domed but also lower in overall profile then that'd be a double win...
