always tighten the those clamps :)
After we shimmed my wastegate, me and a buddy went for a drive.
Got on an empty road, put it in third at 2k rpms, and laid on the throttle. sounded like this:
BrmmmmmmmmmMMMMM(add spool sound here)MMMM(SSHHHHH) POOOFFFF

Blew off the hose before the 3000 pipe.

t-bolt clamps will solve most of that issue...

best upgrade i have ever done.

i have yet to blow a t-bolt off, or split a 4ply coupler,

i have blown the stockers and sliped from the worm style clamps, but hard pipes and 4ply/t-bolts is a reall winner

lol yeah no kiddin, i feel like i droped about 200 in clamps and couplers,

figure each couple is about 25 bucks and t-bolts are rouhgly 4-5 each..

maybe thats a high qoute, i still spent atleast 150ish, i only have 4 connections, worth every penny though!

200 probably isn't far off when you factor in how much you spent on beer, cigars, and other misc things that come along with working in the garage.

Flight doc 89, i feel you man, I did the EXACT same thing.
