I'm actually with you there, but the customers dictate what they want - that's the market! We actually had constant-tension clamps in our initial kits before getting some pretty heavy user feedback asking for t-bolts.
I must have gotten mine before the switch, as I have the worm gear style and have had the worst luck with them. Does CVF offer the newer clamps by chance by themselves? Or at least could you provide the sizes needed for proper fit?
Of course! Will get in contact via PM so we can get you taken care of.
yeah, that’s basically how I see it too. It’s interesting to me how ’looks best’ gets conflated with ‘best’. That said, among the worm gear clamps, I think those Murray turbo seal clamps are top of the heap, and much better than the average worm gear clamp with all the holes that let it eventually dig into and potentially damage the coupler. Of course the cost is premium too, around $10 each. That’s $80 just in clamps, and makes a huge impact on the cost of a full kit.
Thanks Jason, I got your message! As usual, you and CVF have great responsiveness, and timeliness to customer concerns that continues to amaze me
There seems to be two different size clamps in the Tuned Plus picture ? Do you know what are the correct sizes supposed to be ?
When I was researching, this is the list I came up with. I wanted all the clamps to match, so I got all of them. Adams kit only has 6 clamps for the charge pipes since the factory cold side only has 2 clamps. Not sure what size they are or if they'll fit aftermarket charge pipes. Some aftermarket pipes may have some variation in size, so no guarantee these will fit any particular pipes aside from the ones I called out.
This is great info, thanks!
