I'm asking because it's getting closer to D-day when I start throwing upgrades at Lil Badass. I've seen differing opinions which are better. Does it depend on if it's a rad hose or intercooler? I know they cost more I bought an assortment box of both. I have seen multiple turbo builds on You Tube some use screw type some use T-bolt. So which is better?

Just did a mix of t bolt and mishimoto constant tension clamps. So far so good. I did find this chart from mishimoto that was pretty handy. Screenshot_20220228-204153_Chrome.jpg

Doesn't matter. Just use hairspray when Joining things together as it acts as a Lubricant going together and an adhesive when it dries. I run 28lbs of boost and its held true on a lot of my problem areas before I used aerosol hair spray
