My intercooler piping keeps popping off anytime I hit any decent amount of boost (14psi or so) and it's starting to annoy the crap out of me. It normally pops in 1 of 2 spots...all the other connections have been doing alright so far. I'm looking into getting new couplers but wanted peoples opinions on hump connectors. They seem to be more expensive then the straight ones but I would be willing to pay the extra price for them if they aid in this issue. Thanks for the help!

does your intercooler pipes have a lip on both ends or is it simply cut flush? If it's cut flush, have a lip done all around by a welder, it will not cost much and it will no more blow-off your couplings.
