Had the same problem on mine too. The snorkel of the Carbonio is a tad bigger than the the gap on the car. At the end, i managed to forcefully slide the snorkel into the gap. No probs at all. Maybe selling it tho and get a Dbilas intake from Regal. They just launched a new one to fit the ed30, which needs some re-circ pipe after the maf sensor or something. Cost £325 tho!! But gains are meant to be good, they recommended that over an intercooler and they run it on their race car. So should be a good intake i think.
