I've had good luck with T bolts on intercooler piping bc you can really crank them down without stripping out the lil gear but when it comes to coolant lines I've stuck with the OEM clamps and they seem to work fine. Not that I have never had coolant leaks bc lets be real I think I've had a coolant leak from like every line over the years. But the OEM clamps have worked well for me and the leaks seem to step from the rubber lines drying up over the years which is simply the nature of the beast.

Had a similar issue, check the hoses for a tiny pin hole leak. I changed all mine since they are recommended at 60k

Thank you all for your responses, does anyone have the part numbers for the hoses and clamps? I am going to take off the undertray soon and go through all the coolant lines and see if there are any leaks

are there any O rings or anything that are on the thermostat housing that could leak?

Google "evo 8 hose kit" for better stronger silicone hoses or here : http://bfy.tw/BKnQ

There's six coolant hoses - eight if counting heater hoses. I'd suggest calling a supplier and asking for all eight coolant hoses. You want the Mitsubishi molded hoses. Reuse the old clamps except the heater hoses come with clamps.

There's an o-ring on the thermostat. This is going to seal unless cut or if there is debris under it.
