If it was quite expensive, surely it would of been designed to fit in the engine bay properly. Either that or you've fitted it incorrectly.

Only quite expensive? That's why it don't quite fit then.
Seriously though, try refitting it. If it still rubs then send it back.

Mines rubbing too Scott, did you ever figure a fix out? I mean, other than removing it, because I actually got quite a good torque increase from mine.
