EVO loose intercooler clamps?



well i was looking under the hood checking fluids and just making sure nut's and bolts where tight.

well i decided to tightend the intercooler pipe clamps
and i was able to turn the clamp bolt 1 to 2 full turns..

i check 3 clamps all the same thing.. i think the the rubber hoses
going through so many heat cycles are shrinking causing clamps
to loosen im wondering if this might be a reason for some people
not to be putting out as much boost..

im wondering if any of you out there have ran across this...
i only have 500 miles on my car also..

so check your clamps and let me know how many have the same
symptoms im curious.
