Man... It seems like everytime you put a lil money into the evo, something else goes wrong with the car. Today I was getting into my car ready to go to work. i drive down the street and hearing a loud pop.... i wondering what could this be, because i wasnt boosting hard at all. shifting at like 4k. I look under the hood and realize my UICP blew off. this is a common problem i was having with my stock UICP and im still getting it with my aftermarket one. the car has an intake now but havent been tune but im not pushing the car at all just daily drivin till i can get it tuned next weekend. Now when the car reaches boost, it cant go any further just as if the uicp is still off. but i reconnected it. WHAT COULD BE CAUSING THIS PROBLEM TO KEEP HAPPENING????????

pressure in the intake lines ....very common problem bro, all you need are tbolt clamps..or for now, use two regular clamps, also tighthen them with the 8mm/10mm ratchet and dont use a screw driver...also you can put some hair spray around outside of TB to help seal....

 

I must be lucky... never had this problem yet and the stock pos clamps look like they are holding well.

 

as stated above, I would highly recommend you use t-bolt clamps if you are not currently using them. you might have other intercooler pipe connections which may be loose or are leaking causing your EVO to jerk under load. purchase some t-bolt clamps and go over your entire intercooler plumbing.

 

tblots and hairspray. i was having this issue too, but i ended up upgrading my intercooler, and di al the piping too. hasnt been an issue since

 

Damn... Thanks Ya'll I looked under the hood and their were some pipes that wasnt reconnected right and i WAS using a screw driver.. i need to get me some tools. lol

but i need to get some new clamps cause im getting leak through one of these pipes

 

As said before. Tbolts and hairspray ftw.

 

Also, make sure that when you tighten your clamps, you are tightening right next to, but not on top of, the bead on the intercooler piping. As long as the clamp doesn't fail, it makes it pretty difficult for the pipe to blow off.

T bolt clambs and I'd highly recommend upper and lower IC piping for ANY modded Evo.

 

+1 for the tbolt clamps, i used to blow off pipes when launching at the track, and then i got the tbolt clamps and it solved everything
