You need to use T-bolt clamps. Regular clamps arent going to hold. The hairspray is simply spray it on and then clamp the boot on and when the hairspray becomes tacky it dries and basically glues the boot on.

you could also use nitrile coupling found as napa as radiator hosing.
the stuff when heated comes so sticky it holds onto piping.
i used to run it on my honda and boosted 18 psi EVEN without a clamp on it!
to get it off you need to pry it off with a screwdriver

which UICP do you have? is it aftermarket? if you're still with the stock one, i imagine its prolly all worn out from all that popping, reinstallation, hairspray etc. if its aftermarket, idk whats up.
i had the problem before. i used the right t bolt clamp on the stock hose and my sisters hairspray. it still blew off. then i went with ETS stock route UICP with the included hoses and clamps and the problem went away....
