pipe keeps popping
Since doing the engine and fitting the FMIC i am having trouble with the pipe popping off on boost
I've arrowed the pipe and where its blowing off. It doesn't matter how tight i do the clip, it just keeps popping. I am still getting quite a bit of moisture in the FMIC pipes even after fitting the catch can. The pic is an old one and i know its not plumbed in.
So any idea's lads ???

Funny your having this problem, I had an issue with one of mine only the other week, Three times it popped off in the space of 80 miles.
I ordered a longer silicon hose and changed the clamp to a Murray clamp as used on some WRC cars. I was very impressed with the design of the clamp and will be changing all of mine over to these in the near future. They say they will never blow off!!!!!
All ordered from SFS performance
