stupid intercooler piping.
 
on my d15b7 everything stock. no managment. stock injectors. pushing 8 psi the intercooler pipin keeps blowin off. no matter how much i tighten the clamps(t-blot) they won't hold. any advice on how to fix the problem besides welding them?

hair spray. Spray some in the coupler and some on the pipe. put the coupler on the pipe, clamp down. wait 30 minutes and then test 'er out.

Put either a bead of weld around the outside edge to create a ridge, out 4 sheet metal screws will work too. That's what I did on some of my aluminum pipes that lacked a ridge.

Some of the most effective solutions are always some of the weirdest... but the weirder the better. I had a dvd that wouldnt play and my buddy told me to use toothpaste on it, sure enough it worked... musta been the added tarter control

anyway, if toothpaste can fix a dvd, then hair spray will take care of your ic pipe!!
