bro, you forgot to connect something. You were having what seemed to be a pretty big leak. sometimes those things slip off the turbo (happened to me) and lip so you cant see it. Anyway, dont sell it. its a nice product. Fix it first. Also, you might rip the old inlet in the process of doing it and then you will need the new inlet. haha. good luck!!
