UICP to Elbow Question

Ok I have the stock UICP. Every time I go WOT The hose pops off. I can't seem to get the clamp to hold it. I have a t clamp on there now going to try and find a different one. Some reason having trouble finding 2.75.. Any thoughts on how to secure the hose on there more snug? I am running about 25 - 26lbs of boost I thought about turning down the boost. Its weird I was fine for about a week then all of the sudden POP.. Thanks

wipe the grease of that area, spray with hairspray, then tighten the shat out of that t-clamp. You can find t-clamps on ebay.

Thanks my buddy said the same thing about the hair spray. Have to go buy some.. Was hoping to find tclamps locally so I don't have to order. I am assuming i want a 2.75 tclamp.

^This
Although I have never needed to use hairspray and would prefer not to since I am always taking it apart.
