t-clamps may help a little. When you reinstalled the pipe, did you wipe off all the oil that may have collected? Lastly, do you have an oil catch can? If not, you may want to invest in one.

+1 on the t clamps and the occ or get the Stett charge pipe. Once I installed my occ no more oil in the charge pipe.

[Sniz]

t bolt clamps

[mwscircle]

just get the stett lmao simple pwnage solution

[Jeller]

better clamps and spray a little bit of hair spray on the hose, it will make it stick (sounds dumb but it works).

Ya I cleaned it wit rubbing alcohol. But I just checked again after puttng it back together it has moved to the edge again.

Do you guys know if sttet just sells the rubber conective parts? You know the ones with the groves and the clamps?

[cstmx_ryder]

Call Stett to get the pricing on the throttle body connecting hose?

Or get another BOV w/o that issue, ie AA or Stett........

I mean I don't need the valve itself I need the rubber connections with the groves.

I'll have to agree with everyone you need T-clamps. My last toy aka SRT-4 with 32psi had horrible problems with blowing off the outlet tube from the intercooler. After I installed T-clamps never had that problem again. One of the best investments you can make!

I would tell Stett you wanted a spare hose/clamp for an existing Stett setup or something lol... they might not want to sell just a hose/clamp without you buying their charge pipe. I think they patented the design or talked about it.

I have the same charge pipe for UR and mine was blowing off also.

I noticed on my silicon hose that connects the pipe to the TB, it was getting stretched and in the sides were starting to tear. I would clean and put it bcak on but it would keep blowing off.

I ended buying a brand new 3" silicon hose connector and re-attached it with the existing worm clamps. Everythings fine now. The new 3" silicon hose was super super tight and it took some effort to get it over the throttle body and the charge pipe but you just gotta finesse it a bit to get it in and clamped. Thing hasn't budged and even without the clamps on it was pretty tight on there.

I also bought t-bolt clamps but i bought 3" ones and they were too small. You need to go 3.25inces -3.5 inche for t-bolts. I have a set of 3" ones that are laying around now.. maybe i'll use them for something else.

Here's the website to get what you need:

Silicon coupler

They also have red and blue

t-bolts

http://www.siliconeintakes.com/produ...ffae08f8343684

thats for the 3.25". I bought the 3" ones but they were just short by only a couple centimeters so i believe the 3.25" should work.

I bought 3.25 and 3.5. I ended up using the 3.5 and tightening the hell out of it.
