IC piping t-bolt clamp size?

what size t bolt clamps work for stock the upper intercooler pipe? I was thinking 2.5" clamps would be best but the only auto store nearby that has t bolt clamps has 3 inch ones...

You'll want a T-bolt designed for a 2.5" ID coupler, which would probably be labeled as a 2.75" T-bolt. Considering the stock piping is closer to 2.35" ID you might be able to use what's labeled as a 2.5" T-bolt.

LICP clamp size...

What size clamp are you guys running on your turbo outlet pipe to LICP? I ordered the 2" one from Cajun and it tightens down right as it runs outta bolt. Not to mention the bolt is sticking way out. Injen pipes. Do I need to get the 1.5" or 1.75"? Thanks

Talk to them over the phone or send them a PM, I'm sure a fair deal can be reached i.e. stuffing the single clamp in a padded envelope and charging you far less than $10 shipping.

Yeah I just sent them a PM, I know a padded envelope can be acquired for much cheaper. Hopefully it works out both ways.
