After my Injen LICP blew off while going around the Nurburgring I swore then and there I would remove it when I got home. I wasted half a lap (back half of the Ring is my favorite) so I was pretty upset. Anyway I have had the Injen LICP on for about 4 months and never had a problem until then. Granted I fixed it in the parking lot and it didn't give me any trouble for the rest of the trip. Well today I removed it and replaced it with the stock LICP.

Anyone else remove aftermarket parts for the piece of mind of factory engineered original equipment?

 

nope never had a problem with my LICP and I have had that on a year+ or so. When you mod though things like this happen its something I have come to terms with I wouldnt go back to stock unless I really really had to

 

Been there; had the same issues. Although I've lot more track time than you.

 

You know how much track time each of us have had over the years?

 

you jsut need to put 2 t bolt clamps on it what i did for my ams one...would never go back to stock perofrmance from the one pipe will depriciate if you take it off...

 

my ams one came off ones on a road course., placed it back with 2 clamps and never had any issues again.

 

+1 on T-bolt clamps. However you could get a different LICP that has a bracket that mounts it in place like the Nisei LICP.

 

i blew mine off last week, but im fine now, i didn't have it sitting right on the coupler, and im still on hose clamps at 22psi

 

My upper blew off last night and scared the **** out of me lol!

 

I think the more logical thing to do would have been get a T-Bolt clamp and re-clamp the aftermarket unit. Whether the stock unit has a weak clamp or an aftermarket unit has a weak clamp - they're going to blow off.

 

You may be right. I wasnt happy with the fit of the INJEN LICP.

 

T-Bolts FTW!

 

I have had my Nisei on for a while and no boost leaks or blowing off. Just shop around and get a good quality LICP with a support bracket (like factory) and you won't have issues.
