The turbo keeps blowing the boot clamp off the bottom of the tube going up to the intake horn. I've tried two different clamps and it still blows it off. How do I fix this?

Can you see if there is a slight film of oil on the boot? Usually that's the reason they come off.

How much pressure are you putting through it?

Isn't it M73M that uses a thin film of non abrasive goop for his boots?

I use orange degreaser from Home Depot to set my boots up. It extremely slick while wet but becomes sticky after it dry. The boots really are a PITA to get back off.

I run up to 28# of boost on mine and since getting the boots and clamps set from Geno's, I've never had a problem. Are you using a constant torque clamp?
