I hooked mine up as engine outlet to filter inlet and filter outlet to engine inlet.

What goes out(let) from the engine must be what goes in(let) to the filter housing. What comes out(let) from the filter housing must go in(let) to the engine.
 
Yep you got them backwards. Just like 85_Ranger4x4 said, Engine out to filter in and from filter out to engine in.
