Default Jubile clip came off !!!

The jubilee clip that goes on the pipe from the turbo to the I/C (bend Under neath) the I/C came off today and made a right funny noise anyway put it back on and no problems. Is there any reason why this would come off ?? the cars is a 2006 sti mapped to 1.4 bar .I know this was tight a few months ago so why now ? Also the red bend piece of pipe looks crap sort of has red tape on it as well is there a after market one you can get

Engine breathing a bit more with higher boost and the oil is lubricating the join?

I had this problem repeatedly after swapping to a 20g. The std red hose is cut a little short and an odd shape to fit anything other than the VF43.
Solution was an SFS 90 deg hose cut to size.

Your right Nick there was a little bit of oil around the joint as well.
Is there a better hose I can get ? would a SFS 90 deg hose cut to size fit my standard turbo ?
Cheers Steve.

Can't see why the SFS won't work on the standard turbo.

Noticed more oil use with the higher boost?
