Help Installing GMPP Intake(NJ)

Now, I know what most of all of you are thinking (Wow this dude is struggling with an intake, he should just give up modding his car)but hear me out here. I breezed through every other part of the install except for the part where the elbow goes over the throttle body which has the adapter around. No matter how many times I have tried it wont go over it.

So..... instead of just letting the kit sit there uninstalled is anyone interested in helping me get the damn thing on so I can at least get my money's worth?

Thanks,

Rich.

lol. are you sure you're using the right side....i.e. one side of the coupler isn't bigger? it's not rocket science.
