More CAI fun., 3 inch pipe? normal or no. Options

[cHinaman727]

I took some pictures of my Ebay'ed CAI. I havent installed it yet and I probably won't until I buy a bypass valve. I believe I recieved a 3 inch pipe.
In the following picture, it looks maybe 2.75 but that is only on that side. When you turn the pipe, it is 3 inches.



This is a picture of the start of pipe that the filter connects to. Not the end for the filter, the other end. For some reason, I got a 3 Inch Pipe.
I think that's what it is. Is this going to mess up my intake?




This is a picture of the two pipes and filter I recieved. The red circled parts are the two pipes I talk about in my previous post.
As you can also see on the pipe without the two small things, there are two dents, probably not much of a concern.



A closeup of the two little pipes.



This is the 3 inch filter I recieved. It is big.



6 Inches long.


From this information, what can you tell me? Is it too big? I fear I spent 30 bucks on something that wont work for me.

I found a bypass valve for 44.95 near where I live. I need the 3 inch one right?



Thanks!

oh i see, don't be mistaken between the two holes on the intake pipe and the two holes for where the air ducts go... sorry, if i screwed up somewhere..
anyway, the two intake breather holes are not needed, but you'll need to put the air temp somewhere so there'll be atleast one hole on the intake.
the two holes on the body are the air duct vents for the stock air cleaner system. one of these holes leads to the atmosphere (you know, where air enters.. the other hole leads to another air box resonator of some sort.
but like i mentioned you'll know what i mean once you start on the installation.
