[s-cars] hose clamp

[Bares, Vittorio]

I buy my stuff from cxracing.com

They also have clamp combo's that you can specify different sizes...

Hi Y'all,

Climbing onto the boost this morning the car went "BANG!!!" and power 
disappeared.  Yup, blew off a hose.  :-(

I spent the next half hour jacking up the front of the urS6 so I 
could get under it at the side of the road (well, actually I managed 
to limp into a bank parking lot) and pulling the belly pan.

Yup - sure enough, the turbo ---> crossover hose was off the 
crossover pipe.  Simple repair except for one small problem - there 
was no way to loosen the clamp so I could put it back on over the 
Samco hose/crossover junction.  I did, however, manage to screw up 
the old T clamp enough to make it unusable even if I could have 
opened it up.  I need a replacement T clamp.

IIRC, I got the one I just screwed up from ECSTuning but I don't find 
a suitable replacement part in their on-line catalog.

So - where do I find a good replacement hose clamp these days?

Bob
