Default Clamps for Kraftwerks Rotrex kit

Hello all,

I have the Kraftwerks Rotrex intercooled kit for my 2002. I have it stored for the winter at my dad's place. He lives two hours from me, so getting to the car right away isn't exactly easy and with him being 70, I don't think it would be ideal for him to crawl around under the car lol. I have tried to search high and low, but could not find any information on the amount of clamps and sizes. Does anyone know the amount of clamps and sizes? I am wanting to replace the standard ones with some t-bolt clamps as a project once spring gets here. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

I hate T-Bolt clamps with a passion. I'd recommend getting Vibration-Resistant Worm-Drive Clamps, much easier to install and with bead rolled pipes there are zero issues.

I prefer constant torque clamps myself, no pinching like t-bolt clamps, and they don't damage the rubber or silicone like worm clamps.

Thanks for this. I was stuck in the 2 awful worlds of worm gears and t-bolts... Time to give them all my money and update my clamp situation.
