Default Mac CAI Possible Problems

Hey guys got a question for you. I just got my MAC cold air intake in the mail today and when I pulled all of the stuff out there was 2 chrome pieces. I recognized the piece that went from the air filter towards the air sensor. The only other chrome piece that was in the box was a small maybe 5 inch long straight tube. Judging by the pictures there should have been 2 fairly long tubes that have curves to them. I was only given one that goes to the filter, the other that goes to the engine seemed to be missing. I have a 2000 V6 if that helps. Thanks

This is the CAI I bought just for reference.

Well first you should post some pictures so we can better help you.

And instead of the fender wall system they could have sent you the open air system that just sits near near the fender wall.
So the filter would just kind of sit there.

Otherwise I don't know, just get those pics up.

well you defenietly got the fenderwall system.
from the pics the striaght tube is the one on the upper half where the vacuum hose goes and from what i can see that little blue elbow piece probably connects to the tb.
