T-Bolt Clamp size for intercooler

I have searched and searched, read 10 diy's, and have resulted to a thread...Sorry.

What size t-bolt clamps do I need for my AA Race Intercooler install?
Piping measures 2.5" but the silicone boots measure 3".
I almost pulled the trigger on 2.5" mishimoto t-bolt clamps but figured I would ask the forums first.

AA Race intercooler install.

Thank you

Come on guys, just need to know the size of t-bolt clamps that go on the Intercooler.

2.5", 2.75", or 3"?

The clamps that come with the intercooler are #40 what does that equate to?

So it came with worm gear style clamps? Size 40 in those is about 2-2.5" I think. So you probably want 2.5" t-bolt. Sorry I don't have an AA intercooler so I can not confirm fitment.

At least that is something. I am pretty sure 2.5" is the right size. Just want to get confirmation.

You might be better off just asking AA the size and / or for a replacement.
