Any idea what boost you are running?
And a list of any mods will help, plus any remap and who did it?

What clamps did you change them for? Do your I/C pipes have a raised edge for the clamp to be fitted before? Are you clamping in the right place and really tight?

They shouldn't pop off even with big boost.
