hose clamps

I need some better hose clamps. I keep blowing the pipe going from the intercooler to the intake manifold. The clamps arent strong enough. I was running 19 psi when I blew them and I am going to try and get tuned at 23 psi. Anyone have any suggestions?

T-bolt clamps work well!

^^^^ Yep. Stockers suck big time, so bad that I kept dropping boost all the way down to 7 PSI or so.

Got the ETS upper and lower intercooler pipes with tbolt clamps. Since I put them on 6 months ago I haven't had to tighten them or had a leak yet. Great stuff.

For a cheap quick fix,get some hair spray and coat the throttle body flange and let sit for a few. Sucker wont blow off ever
