Default Knocking in engine bay after installing high flow air Intake

I just installed Z1 motor sports carb legal high flow air intake and now whenever I step on the gas, make a hard turn, or hit a pothole I hear a knocking from the left side of my engine bay. I’ve checked and everything is very tight snd it doesn’t make the noise when I rev it only when I’m actually driving. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hitting the hood? Loosen the clamps and readjust.

Check engine mounts. Do a torque test with a buddy, the mounts could be shot, causing the engine to lift under load.
