Home Depot etc have 'Fernco' couplings that you might look into[rubber with 2 clamps and fit various sizes ]

The coupler between the K&N CAI and MAF tore on mine, and I went to Home Depot for the fernco just like Mtrhds stated above. It costs roughly $5 - $8 for a 3" connector.

However, it is a slight pain to slip on. I had to heat mine up in hot water before it became malleable enough to slip on. Very snug fit, but works well...
