hanra Into the laaaake Member 1,532 Member For: 17y 10m 20d Gender: Male Location: Nrth Qld Posted 26/11/07 12:22 PM Share Posted 26/11/07 12:22 PM (edited) Ive already replaced a couple of clamps with decent (normal) clamps, but I still have a spring clamp on the lower I/C hose and also on the outlet of the compressor. Replacing the lower I/C clamp is simple enough, but the one off the compressor looks like it could be tricky..... Not a great deal of room there. Im still only running stock 5psi but expecting a custom tune early next year.What sort of clamps have people used and how difficult was it replacing the spring clamp off the compressor????
