Hey ya'll,

People that have the buschur UICP and the buschur intercooler AKA 2.5 inch diameter piping.

what size t-bolt clamps fit really well?


thanks,
John

 

2.5in..

 

lol not really man.

I've tried 2.5 inch and need just a tad bit bigger....because of the coupler.

but just don't really know the incriments that it goes in. as in what the next largest size would be

 

2.75 is the next size but then you will run out of threads before you get it safely tightened

I just installed a buschur UICP two weeks ago. I used the Breeze 2.50" min diam ones. Should be able to get them at NAPA. BTW, I thought it was pretty lame that BR sent some lame *** standard hose clamps with the UICP. Those aren't even acceptable on a stock Evo.

 

Id of called and asked whats up? The standard for a company of that caliber should be Tbolt clamps ONLY.

 

I didn't bother because I already have a whole pile of the good clamps, and ETS included 4 with their intercooler , so I had plenty. It's just the principle of it, you know DB would never install that **** on his car, so why would he expect his customers to install them on theirs?

 

I have their race fmic sitting at home in a box waiting for my return.

If its got worm clamps. They will be getting a call.

1400 for FMIC, piping, and mini batt kit. I better get some tbolt clamps.

 

haha its gonna have worm clamps...thats what mine came with...oh well...

 

It may now -- But when I get off the phone it wont. =)


I very much doubt Nick would dare send me worm clamps.

 

Worm clamps will work fine with properly beaded piping and good couplers. T-bolts may be nice to have, but they are not an absolute necessity.

 

yeah, they are usually fine I guess. the intercooler and intercooler piping are both awesome parts and come with beaded piping. But I'm going to be running a lot of boost so I'd rather have t-bolt clamps

 

Yea sucks taking the gd bumper off just to replace them too!
