does your IC pipes have a nice bead on the end of it. sometimes if the bead is not high enough the hose and clamp could slip off.

also could be your clamps but i suspect the bead on the pipe.

Just get T-bolt, because it'll suck to have it come off on the side of the road somewhere far away.

Autozone does not carry T-Bolts. Get them from Napa, Goodyear, or any other pneumatics/hydraulics store.

I had this problem. I thought I blew my engine a few times when I gunned it.... I bought a longer rubber cuppler thing and put 2 clamps on there. Problem solved. I wish I would have known about hair spray. Sounds interesting..
