Seems like a common problem with this intake.

guess what the jb didnt even hold and i let it set for like 15 hours i think its just in a really bad spot to much stress on the joint to use any type of epoxy

now its just ghetto clamped HAHAHAH and yes a pink hair tie incase it comes loose it wont bounce around the engine bay

instead of taking it out now ill keep it like this for a few months then sell it with the brand new shield i have

so lame

I think the problem stems from the battery not being 100% fixed to the frame. A nice big pothole in the road should be enough to cause something like that tab to break.
