ESS SC + T-bolts, sizing help
So all the flimsy stock clamps always come loose. I want to replace the ones on the throttle bodies, but I need to know the size that I should get. Also, any other ones I should be concerned with (that could be loosing boost)?
I'll be ordering from silicon intakes. Thanks! |

can you please expand on the right way?
I tightened them up as much as I could without actually slipping them... They all come loose quite soon. I had others look at it, and sujested t bolt clamps. If I'm doing it wrong, I'd rather do it right then spend another $40.. |

Also you need to make sure that the intake runners are dropped in the boots far enough so the clamps can actually hold on tight. |

55k. The runners seem to be well in there (the lines are just a tad on top of the rubber if that makes sense).
The clamps just seem to get loose , I tightn them on weekly basis (especially the ones far back). |

They should not be coming loose. A new set of factory clamps work perfectly fine. I would suggest ordering a new set and replacing if they are coming loose.

I will take a picture of my runners, maybe you can tell if they are sitting well enough. |
