    CSL Airbox causing SMG reservoir to vibrate?

    So the shop that installed my CSL airbox mounted the SMG reservoir to where it's just touching the airbox. I didn't notice until now, but the airbox causes the reservoir to vibrate a lot when the engine is running. I've noticed that some CHF fluid had leaked out, but the cap was a little loose, so I'm thinking that was the cause. Since I tightened it up, and it seems to have stopped leaking. I also stuck some thin anti-vibration padding in between the airbox and reservoir. Just wondering if I should find another place to mount the reservoir (although I don't see any other mounting points) or if this is fine?

    Did they mount it using the OEM CSL bracket? I found an alternative bracket to avoid the additional hole.
    I've never been happy with mouting and location. Ideally, I'd like to get a slimmer tank and mount it near the the brake booster or similar.

      I’d be interested to learn where you mounted this. I don’t have the bell mouth airbox so I’m not rubbing but love to see different solutions,

        Yup I supplied the OEM CSL bracket to them and they used it. Weighing my options right now to see if it could be mounted elsewhere...
