Injen Charge Pipe Coupler

I know there is threads about this and I know the couplers they send with this pipe suck ass but Ive also read that it works for some people. Well its not working for me. Ive blown it off at the IC 3 times now and I'm using T-bolts on it. So my question is other than ordering online is there any type of hardware store that sells a 2.5' coupler that I can pick up locally?

Nope, not 3-4 ply couplers meant for boost. try putting hairspray on the coupler and making sure your clamps are behind the lips on both the intercooler and chargepiping. You should have no more than 3/4" on each side intercooler and chargepiping. Enough to get a clamps width on the coupler behind the lip. I had a 23psi trifecta tune with no issues running the injen couplers and worm clamps.

Also ensure your clamps are not going on crooked.
