Made the same mistake about the Grp A filter from Woodford.
Got it all sorted in the end.

@M.A.D.RST --> how exactly have you installed your filter as mine is apparently rubbing against the lower turbo-intercooler hose.

Ive got the same K+N as MAD RST and my bonnet vent touches the filter when you shut the bonnet. It looks well tidy.

Got one roose hosing, pushed in the trumpet a little way, connected it to the turbo and thats it. No rubbing underneath, it seems to 'float' but like everyone else the bonnet catches it as there is a little spot on the rubber bit that is now dented!!!

The carbon fibre turbo heatshield came from Nomad Racing.
The carbon fibre cambelt cover came from Marcus Biney.
