Default Re: Mod questions

I finally acquired all of the pieces for adding a CAI and 74mm TB to my Limited. The TB went in just fine but I have a question about the CAI. In the kit I received, the assembly goes like this:

1. 3" silicone coupler clamped to throttle body
2. MAF housing body to silicone coupler
3. 90 degree silicone elbow to MAF housing
4. Intake pipe to 90 degree silicone elbow

The silicone coupler was tough to get on the 74mm TB but I got it. Even tougher was getting the MAF housing body into the other end of the coupler. There isn't much room there. My MAF housing body is in the coupler as far as I can get it but it's pinned against the firewall. You can see it in the attached picture. Is this normal? Do I have to worry about engine movement stressing or damaging the MAF housing?
