Car Won't start after I installed a CAI

Ding..

You can see the IAC (silver film canister thing) (yours may be plastic if its changed out)
You can see the electronics plug connector
and you can also see the elbow hose at the bottom of that picture.
 
how about re-installing the stock one and see what happens. that way you'd if its the intake or not. its gotta be something really dumb, the contour can't be that picky of a car.
 
okay i got my car started by like giving it some gas. then some smoke cam out of my exhaust. now it starts. is the smoke from fluiding it last night by trying to give it gas and turning it. But i am going to take it for a spin?
 
i didn't clean it it didn't look liked it needed a cleaning. but now the car runs great and no more smoke coming out of the exhaust that was only for the first 30 seconds. it starts up great too. Thanks guys for all ur help i appericiate it
