HELP me all you proffesionals

I just got an injen intake today,and it doesn't fit.The Hole on the pipe is like an inch apart from the hole on the fan cover,and if i try to force it it all wants to fall apart.It's the right pipe though,the intake came with the sensor adapter and everything.What should i do?Just put the stoch pipe in and add the injen filter or try to work with some stuff in my garage to make it fit?Please help it's night and i gotta go to work tomorrow. :) Stupid me just couldn't wait for the weekend.

Ok i just installed it.It's sitting there firmly,it's raining here so i can't really say how much difference there is,but it sure seems to be responding alot better,and it seems to have better acceleration also,but like i said it was raining so the roads are wet,so i didn't wanna go any further.It also seems to sound differently.I didn't hear any difference in the fist few thousand RPM,but after 4000 or so it really sounded nice.

How's this look?Am i gonna be all right?

How bout this?
