Re: Have you replaced the hose clamp?

I replaced my hose and clamps with Hosetechniques (.) com's silicone hose and nice T-clamp. I think that this type of clamp is good at this location (hose-to-intake), but is totally overkill on any other location.
Its a reducer-hose, though, not straight. I can't remember the diameters, but if you reply, I'll look it up.
THe OE rubber hose has this nice groove in it that fits into the intake lip, but any aftermarket hose doesn't have this feature.
I had the same issue…once that hose starts popping off, its just a matter of time before it fails completely, or you tear it while repairing it road-side.
