Nemesis Air Intake and Boxes Pics and help needed!

Hey guy,

I just received my intake and went out to the garage to install it, everything looks great, great cf quality and fitment is just about perfect for all the pieces.

I am having one problem connecting the mouth pieces to where the the cf meets the oem slot. If you look in the picture below you can see that the mouth pieces are not connected to the engine. It came with these blue connectors/adapter tubes(second 2 pictures) but I do not see how that would connect the 2.

Idk if anyone has any experience installing this but any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried using the blue sleeves to connect the two pieces?

Yes I did, the problem is, is that the blue sleeves are to big so either I wrap it around the outside which would like extremely stupid (having all cf with a blue sleeve visible) or I stuff it inside which doesn't look right because the sleeve is to big and wrinkles up inside the tube. When I try and not use anything the end of the mouth seems to be the exact same size as the oem slot which doesn't allow for proper fitment.

Slide the blue silicone hoses over each end like the black ones in the pic below. Thats the only way to do it, if you dont like the blue, you'll have to buy black silicone couplings

Thank you, I am currently painting the blue connectors so that they are black and I will try to fit them on later tonight when they dry. I don't understand why the connector would be blue, here is a pic of what it would look like.
