I just installed a 12x3x31 ebay intercooler and i have massive boost leaks on the piping, any tricks for fixing these other than tightening the clamps.

Use a welder or bead roller to put beads on the end of each pipe connection. This will create a better seal and keep hoses from popping off.

tbolts and don't look back. I go worm gears to hold 20 psi on some smaller pipes for a little while, but went to tbolts all around:)

Buy new hoses.
