LICP Fitment

I have the Injen LICP (I got it dirt cheap) and it does not want to fit regardless of what I do. Has anyone had this problem as well or is there a trick. It appears that they jig was a bit off when they welded it and the part that connects to the turbo is twisted a bit much. Any ideas?

I had the same thing when I put mine on. It was not off for me just a PITA. What worked for me was put the ic piping on from the turbo first then try to put it on from intercooler.

Try loosening the IC hose on the intercooler so it moves as well so you can manipulate it into place correctly

Yes, it's a total ***** to do that pipe. Just try keeping both couplers loose and try it from one side, then the other. It will fit if you use enough force and creativity. Also, torque the **** out of those clamps. Good luck!

Also, does anyone know where I can pick up some strong clamps today? Mine are all stripped out. Will clamps from home depot work ar are they too weak?
