Default Vibrant Boost Brace



Can't afford the very expensive Wiggen's Clamps? Wants something which looks good, and avoids pipes blowing off? Take a look at these... Very easy to take on and off!!

Available with aluminum and stainless steel feet. I'm planning on installing 2 on my setup in the next few weeks. These are perfect for a street car, or a PRO car.

I saw this at the PRI show along with a few other nice pieces that Vibrant came out with.

doesnt seem too cost effective unless you already purchased the t bolt clamps and silcone hose. i would just vband it and call it a day

i can see the set up would be around 40-50 bucks for everything you see there. and the v band is about the same

its a good idea if you have pipes blow off and want a quick fix

A bead roll and clamps work great...

I run worm clamps over T bolts because the t bolt clamps don't tighten 100% round. Worm clamps and bead rolled pipes to 40+psi.

You still have some flex with the boost brace and silicone. A V-Brand is solid, and would work well if your motor is solid mounted. These braces are great for a street car, and a race car. Nevermind a great addition is you already have the silicone and clamps, but still have a problem with pipes blowing

Plus.. They look cool

yup, thats all we run over here.

good bead roll, clean pipes, clean couplers, and good worm clamps, thats all u need.

never blown off a pipe, blew up a coupler, but never blown the pipes off.

we dont need no stinkin t bolts!
