The other area I was concerned with was the Extreme lid being so close to the scoop/hood that the carb couldn`t pull the air in correctly . In talking to K&N , they said if the lid was too close to the hood , it could create turbulence with the incoming air and effect metering on the HSAB and IAB . I was told that their tests were done " in the open " .
Looks like that isn`t an issue with your setup .

It's not an issue with us and somewhere I have a photo of how close the hood scoop is to the top of the air filter .... but I couldn't find it.... I'll post it if I find it....
