hey guys my intercooler pipes keep blowing off what can i do to stop this Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

rough up the edges like 30 mm in with sandpaper. if you are running high boost though you might have to have a little lip welded around the edge of the pipe to stop the hoses slipping off

thanks mate ill try that

Weld or roll a lip, even the cheap hose clamps hold on for ages when its like this, no real need for the huge clamps. Although the cheaper small one wont last forever

yeah thanks man i got the good ones on it $12 each

How much boost you putting through it to make $12 clamps fail What brand cooler pipping

Just make sure they are tight as man. Should be no problems coming off if your using the truck style clamps as mentioned

it may be the design on the piping as the clamps are only to seal it not to hold the pipe together, is there much movent in the pipes? yeh do what fergo said first

T-bolt clamps ftw...

Yet another hectik Melbourne spec VLT blowing cooler pipes off...Lol...when are people going to catch on over there, rolled pipe ends dont cost much more if at all....

Lipped Edge And Truck Clamps No Popping Issues Should Come Up
