Non airtight seal for airbox

this cause a huge problem for me? Seems like the lid is too big. I think its because of this short piece of rubber tubing before the throttle body. Anyway, am I loosing power?

i don't think you're losing power, if anything, you're gaining power by having a less restrictive intake.

i'd be more worried about getting un-filtered air into the manifold.

well what happens is the two clips holding the lid down wont clamp all the way, I might need to get in there and sand/cut some stuff down.
