Clamps and Vacuum Lines?

[Turbo Habanero]

Where is the best place to buy quality clamps for intercooler pipes ? I'm assuming T-Bolt clamps are the best to use?

Also can anyone tell me the sizes and amount of Vacuum lines i need to redo a vast Majority of my motor.

I've done the bigger odd shaped ones already had to get them from Toyota.

As of right now i was just gonna order stuff off driftmotion but the T bolts that came with the intercooler kit i've broke most of them while putting them on.

Thanks in advance

for stainless tbolt clamps, try to find a local truck supply (semi/tractor trailer supply), they usually have good ones for a good price. auto parts stores usually charge a premium.

Here is where I got my silicone hoses. The site might look fishy but I bought mine from here and I had no problems at all. Paid through Paypal and it arrived in a few days. They are really good quality and they give you a couple feet extra.

If you need couplers and clamps, order from siliconeintakes.com. They are really good quality, but they may not have the cheapest price. My friends and I have all made orders, and they were great quality.

Whatever you do, don't buy your T-bolt clamps at Vatozone. They're made of a pretty soft metal, I ended up stripping out a few of them before they would clamp hard enough to keep the pipes on, sadly. An alternative, would be to get whatever t-bolt clamps you find, then use either 2-3 nuts against each other, or get a connecting nut that fits the thread. LOT more area to grab onto that way.
