T bolt clamps.....what size to get?

Im getting the samco ic hoses put on next week. What size T bolt clamps do I need to get? This is for the upper and lower IC piping.

Thanks and also what is the best way to install these? Use a little hair spray inside the tube, to be sure they dont blow off?

And also where does one get these, at the local hardware store?

Thanks!

Check out these guys, Hose Techniques. http://www.hosetechniques.com/ They have some great looking and very heavy duty T bolt clamps for turbo applications. I ran them on my Talon AWD with great success.

I ordered 1 of the 3 inch clamps for the tb 8 of the 2.5 inch ones for the rest of the ic piping. I also ordered some Samco hoses. I can let you know what I'm missing when I try to put it in later this week.

What size silicon hose would be needed for the turbo inlet to the intake (I've got the HKS RS Intake and would like to get the red hose rather than purple) ... And which to hold the intake filter on?

Don't waste your money on shipping and inflated prices, NAPA carries the same top of the line Breeze t-bolt clamps that all of these "hose" shops sell but for about half the price.

They look like the same ones I can get down at NAPA for $2.50 a pop, except hose techniques charges $6 for them.
