So I purchased an AFE stage 2 intake secondhand. Everything is perfect except it seems like it's an older version that has since been updated to include a silicone coupler to connect the intake and inlet pipe.

I've seen mixed results about the fitment on these, and I've already got a coupler on order from AFE which I can use hopefully to either just fit onto the intake side or hit it with the die grinder and then fit it.

Has anyone been successfully able to fit the AFE stage 2 intake without the silicone coupler? It seems like it's missing nearly an inch of clearance. I've tried every which way possible.
