bad boost leak after CP-E nano install

I just installed the Nano a couple days ago and still have the instuctructions laying here. The CP-E instructions don't mention moving the blue clip to the Nano. It just says "Push down on the side connecting to the XcelNANO to seat the hose." Makes it sound like you don't need the blue clip.

Don't see how the lack of the blue clip would cause a loss of boost. It might make the car run poorly since it could suck air in there that isn't measured by the MAF but the effect should be about the same as a loose clamp on the intake tube.
 
Magic thread revival!!!

lol, 1 year later I've finally installed the blue clip after not realising that it was meant to be fitted.... car ran 'alright' after the original nano install but I never got the bum dyno results others got, and my dashhawk has never registered more than 15.7psi boost... looking forward to tomorrows drive! Will report back!
 
Hah. Oops... I just never noticed it. I put the clip on literally 3 minutes after I read this thread. Haven't noticed anything new. Maybe this could explain my curiously low dyno reading? (lower than other comparative cars on the same day).

I removed the 'blue clip' and replaced the line.
