Default PM Super Gasser Intake?

I was changing out some faded anodized pieces and noticed that my Performance Machine Gasser intake isn't bolting up flush with the throttle body. Looks like the throttle body support bracket pushes the breather bolt spacers out too far for the mounting plate to be flush with the throttle body. The install instructions on the web site are out of date a 2009 revision which indicates to reuse the TB Support bracket on 08 and 09. Anybody running a Gasser that can help ne out?

On a side note the folks at PM were great about sending me out replacement pieces for the anodized spacers that faded, no charge.

That's cool that they resent the parts. I paid almost $400 for exhaust tips that turned purple after one long ride. I think they are overpriced for the quality of parts they are turning out. I had they powdercoated (another $100) and they've been fine. They could atleast use finishes that are suited for the products being produced. I dig their styles, but I won't buy any more of their parts.

Remove the TB Support bracket and it will bolt up flush like it is supposed to.

I talked with a PM Tech and pulled the TB Support bracket. Kinda of a PITA to pull the tank, but I did it prior running speaker and power wires. All good now.
