Hose Clamps

[blackFbird_98]

alright i got the pcv fixed and the belt tension but now it keeps blowing my discharge elbow that goes into the throttle body off, I am usind regular hose clamps is there anything out that would work better it will only let me see 4lbs then BAM it pops off and is a pain to put back on

one thing i learned about the powerdyne is that you have to tighten the living SH*T out of EVERYTHING..are you using a BOV?..and what is your exhaust like?..i had a hollow cat and open muffler (borla) when i had my blower on..i cant really think of anything else to use..im not sure if you would want to use some sort of adhesive there..theres obviously too much back pressure..i would think..check out a breather..BOV..and your exhaust

There are clamps out there called T-bolt clamps or something like that, that are supposed to work better than regular worm drive clamps for boost applications.

The T-bolt Clamps work well. Also a good way to make them stay is Hair Spray. Take a can of your sisters MEGA HOLD hair spray and spray it on the pipes then put on the rubber fittings and put on the hose clamps. I know it sounds weird, but it works like a MOFO ! :D

well i have no cat,pacesetter headers,and three inch magnaflow. and no BOV

The BOV will help a bunch in venting the pressure out to the atmosphere instead of it trying to blow off your pipes. Cheap enough -- you can get 1G DSM versions for $30 or so. (or, as I like to say, go ahead and spend $250 on a HKS one)

If it's blowing off at 4 psi, the elbow is probably not seated all the way, or the clamp is overlapping the ridge instead of setting behind it, or the inside of the elbow is slippery for some reason...

I'd eliminate all those possibilities too.
