You should have an adapter with the kit. The slotted side of it should go over the test pipe and the smaller end fits inside the original pipe clamp. It takes some shimmying. It's a bit easier to clean it first before trying to adjust it under the car.

Speedy2000, thanks for your help. I was finally able to attach the test pipes. Turns out I just needed to add a little more elbow grease. it sounds great!
