yes that's suppose to happen..the blue plug that goes under ur stock air box don't plug into anyting onto ur new intake..it's normal..don't worry about it..as long as ur have all ur hoses connected correctly u'll be fine..and as long as you don't have CEL u're good to go...congrat on the intake.. thumbsup

same here, the only problem I ran into was putting the little metal adapter in the fan shroud.

that been debated for sometime now..u can put them in if you want, but it don't help any with our car..it'll actually make you loose hp down low (i think, if i remember right)..so to avoid bypass, you need to cover the wheel well hella good, not air tight, but cover enuf so there won't be a lot of water splatting from the tires into the wheel well..plus some people uses heat shield with CAI, positioning the shield somehow to block water splat..
