Boost hose popping off of IPD y-pipe with race gas

So this is the second time this has happened ,i have the IPD Y-pipe & IPD plenum & enlarged throttle body which all work great together,when i put the race gas in it obviously creates way more boost,& the clamp at the y-pipe to throttle body pops .This time i hooked up with Mike the creator of IPD who took care of it for me at no charge ,so i should be ok this time.It took a skinnier clamp as there isn't much for the wider clamps to hold on too & they seem to slip off.Going on a run with the boys tomorrow so i just filled up with race juice so i'll see how it goes .

I suspect that will take care of it.

I have had to change all my clamps to heavy duty to stop constant pops.

Turbo Mike is a great guy and is always willing to help. He fixed mine for me to. Great run today. Hopefully the videos came out good to. The drive back on PCH was awesome. Beautiful Day!
