Sorry to give you the bad news buddy, but thats the truth.

Does that mean that we can remove the tube to clean up the enigne bay a little bit more? Once, I get my CGS I will look for some more little things to clean up the engine bay. Also would it be a bad idea to remove the insulation on the hood? maybe it will cool down the engine bay by a degree or two.

DO NOT remove the hood insulation unless you want to see paint fade first-hand. The temp under the hood will heat and fade your paint in a very short time without the insulation. Just a warning...
