Rep Power: 0 Try putting a clamp like the one you have on your throttle body around the intake inlet (about 2 inches or so above existing clamp). That will secure the intake. You can go to autozone, oreillys, etc... to find a clamp.

Rep Power: 0 Just measure the pipe by wrapping a string around the intake and take that measurement. Then take that measurement to one of the stores I just mentioned and look for the clamp that has close to the same measurement. If you have any problems just show one of the employees your dilemma and they will be able to point you in the right direction. I am assuming you are talking about the wide part of the intake before it connects to your throttle body.
Feel safe at night, sleep with a paramedic.

That's not an AEM intake. The guy who sold you the car lied to you. Then again, he was also apparently stupid enough to install it without a clamp on that boot, too. None of this is your fault, tho. Glad you got it fixed. And I wouldn't worry about it not being an AEM, either. As I'm sure you've read, intakes on our cars are mainly just for looks and sound anyway, you wouldn't get any better performance with a name brand intake. Besides, it looks like your no-name intake has a K&N filter, so that's good.
Edit: I'd check out that IAT sensor, tho. Something about it doesn't look right, like there is too much outside the intake, and not enough inside, at least relative to mine.
