Default JWT PopCharger Fitment Question?

Just installed the popcharger....awesome product!

My question is concerning the fitment of the heatshield. You can see in the pic that the part of the heatshield with the rubber is touching some part in the engine that gets very hot. Is this ok?...if not, What should I do to fix this?

Are you sure the shield is in right. Mine doesn't even get close to those parts. Also, I have the rubber thing sitting in a box in my apartment.

You don't want it touching... spend a few minutes tweaking it and you should be ok....
