OK Enough! I have had it!!!

Yah I tightened the s*** out of mine this weekend. I had been afraid in the past but when I saw how lose they were I went to town.

Good news is after lots of WOT runs, I have no stutter still. It's so nice to get on it and not have to worry about stutter.

I noticed that now my boost spikes to 18psi or so in 3rd gear up. Before it only did in 5th and 6th...it's also a lot warmer today (80+) maybe that's a factor?

I do one daily by pressing this.

hahahaha

There really isn't a need to upgrade to Tbolt clamps. The factory ones are still better than worm gear clamps and the edges of the piping has a lip on it. You aren't leaking boost from there...

That being said, snug up the factory equipment.

Correct me if I'm wrong here, but the factory ones are worm gear clamps. I checked mine recently, and the all were loose. The clamp over the TB was less than hand tight, I could easily turn the screw with my fingers.

Not wierd, you just have good taste. (yes) I just wish we had MS3 mods in common too.

Now, if you happened to also have a '79 International Scout II, that would be wierd.

You say owned, as in past tense. Why'd you get rid of them (obviously not MS3)? I got all three new, and still have them. Love them all, but maybe not equally.

 

[builthatch]

so guys, what sizes and how many of each are needed to replace the stockers that are seeing pressure?

i will be using vibrant t-bolt clamps.

Mine seems to be quite the opposite.....everything is way too tight.

I miss my zx9r... But I would have killed myself by now if I kept it.
