sti intercooler install help!

hey i am in the process of installing my sti intercooler on my 06 wrx, but the red silicone at the end of the y pipe won't go all the way onto the turbo. when i get everything lined up it just barely covers it and it i try to push it on more i can get it, but then nothing else fits! I need help! haha any suggestions or helpful tips to get it on them both? Thanks!!

The red elbow doesnt fit onto the tdo4. Its a perfect fit on the vf turbos though. Google style hoses and buy their silicon hose for the wrx. Thats what i did years ago when i was running the sti tmic on my tdo4.

Call LIC. They may stock something. They saved my butt years ago.
