so this problem happened before and i fixed it but now its pissing me off

the hose is cut in the middle for a piece of metal with a welded on turboxs blow off valve to go on.. then the rest of hose it curved

well i put the hose back on and tightened it so it wont move.. i can rev as much as a want and no sign of the hose falling off

but once i build boost driving on it the hose shoots right off..

im only running 11 pounds..

i bought 4 new clamps too ..


wtf is going on
 
Is your IC piping aluminum or steel? Does the coupler have any physical damage?
I also second the recommendation for t-bolt clamps. They're the only way to go.

And as for the hairspray trick - copper spray also works well for those of you lucky guys that don't live with a woman and her bathroom full of care products. ;)
 
clean it up real good and do the hairspray trick, and get some good t-bolt clamps and see if that helps,

P.S. if you can do what the_mork told you do that too
