EVOMS Intake installation problem: HELP!

Hi Guys,
Just got the EVOMS V flow intake for my 2009 Cayenne S. After 2 visits to my installer's shop, they can not make the tube to fit onto the MAF sensor. Because the tube is simply the same diameter as the MAF sensor. (see pic below) They say the tube can not be stretched. This is very frustrating as the parts seen to be correct, unless there is a manufacturing defect or the 2009 MAF sensor is larger than previous years?

Any help is much appreciated.

Call up EVO directly, I'm sure they'd be happy to help.

Try using glass cleaner =) Does the trick every time.
Its "S" but the parts were labeled as " GTS". I heard from EVO (indirectly )that the GTS and S are the same model, and the tube should fit. I stood there with the installers, and it looks impossible without damaging the tubes or the sensor.

EVOMS sent me the right parts in a very timely manner. Now that the intake has been installed, i noticed that the installer did not install the rubber sealing around the heat shell, he states that it is already a tight fit therefore no sealing is necessary. Do you guys think this will cause an issue or reduction in performance gains?

Thanks guys. I will go back to the shop again this weekend. By the way, i highly recommend the EVOMS intake, the more i drive the car, the more i feel the differences in throttle response and performance improvements. The engine revs more freely, the car just becomes more alive.
