Yes, you can get a Spectre coupler from AutoZone for about 10 bucks. Make sure you get the correct sizing.

If you bought the intake new I'd contact the vendor and get some new ones shipped to you, they should be covered. Especially since it's been only a few days.

Takeda's office is in Corona so to answer your question, Yes you can do that.
AFE Power is who you need to call and don't over tighten them!

Over torquing your muffler bearings can have the same effect.
