I've popped hose joints loose a couple times, and at the last track day in Reno, blew a hole in the soft factory hose coming off the turbo. I've sinced installed the Nisei kit and silicone hose joints from Hose Techniques (more or less the same as Samco) and T-bolt clamps on all the turbo hoses. No more hose problems, the whole weekend I was at Thunderhill. My car holds boost at about 24-25 psi through redline.

You're nuts and your car is full of hot air. It must love that.

FYI, I discovered that NAPA auto parts stores have T-bolt clamps (though they may or may not know it). I think I paid under $3 each for them so the price is good, too.
