Lightbulb I need help finding the right piping kit.

Since I am noob to EVO world yet, I have some questions....

I am right now running AMS intercooler on my EVO 8.

My current UICP keeps popping out every time I run my boost around 10psi.

So I have decided to change it.

The one that I am thinking of buying is either Nisei UICP or ETS UICP.

The questions that I have is:

1. would either Nisei UICP or ETS UICP fit on my AMS intercooler?

2. Should I then take out my current battery and get the new mini battery if I decide to go for the short route??
By looking at the picture, if I take the stock route, the coupler at the throttle body seems like it will pop out still...

3. As I saw the pictures of Nisei UICP or ETS UICP, seems like either of them conflicts space with my current Intake. Should I change my Intake as well then?? Would Injen Intake fit with either of these two UICPs ??


Please help me out with these questions by answering in orders 1, 2, and 3.

Thank you so much.

This is just my opinion, but changing the piping doesn't necessarily address the issue. Changing the clamps you are using just might. are you still using the old worm-screw clamps? If so, switch over to some t-bolt clamps. That should take care of your issue at a fraction of the cost.

This ^

For $2.50 you should test out a new T-bolt clamp

t-bolt clamp, hairspray and check the coupler. I had issues with my UICP popping off even with a t-bolt at stock boost levels, looked at the rubber coupler and it was in bad shape. No issues since I swapped to forge's silicone replacements though =)

then clean the inside of the rubber hose with brake cleaner or something. get a rag and wipe it off. rubber hose might have oil that's why it pops out i had the same issue.
