Does Buschur IC piping hold?

My stock upper IC piping keeps blowing off. I got a T-clamp and it holds it but today I was adjusting my boost controller and I guess all the runs under high boost blew it off again. It blows off where the IC piping connects near the throttle body.

Anyways, I was thinking about getting the Buschur IC piping and was wondering if anyone has it if it has blown off at all. Also does the bov connect directly to the Buschur IC?

Make sure it is ALL the way on the throttle body, I know it probably is, but just check... Mine was the same way, and it was about a cm away from the place it was supposed to be. I'm not even using a t-clamp now and it's staying just fine.

make the t-bolt tighter. Maybe you got the wrong sized t-bolt?

Just pressurize the intake after you tighten everything down
I got the buschur one to blow off at 27 psi, then I used a T-Bolt clamp... now it is holding at least to 30ish... I havent blown it off so it seems fine to me.

The Buschur pipe has a bead roll (read: lip) on it so it does not blow off.

also another thing i have been told was to use a lil bit of like aqua net hair spray on the end of it and it will work as a mild adhesive... but honestly if you have the right size t-bolt clamp clamps good it shouldnt go anywhere
