Do all vacuum lines need clamps after turbo install
Excuse my ignorance, but do you need to clamp everysingle vacuum line off of the intake manifold, compressor, bov, wastegate etc after going turbo?
Would they blow off while under boost? I dont see to many clamps in peoples pictures but some seem to clamp the wastegate and bov?
In my head they all want to pop off like the charge pipe couplers like doing
Or are the small lines coming off of the intake manifold just to small and snug to be blown off

Nothing is necessary till it goes wrong. Arp head studs arent necessary for 35 pounds of boost but I would recommend you do it if you don't want anything to go wrong. What's 5 dollars worth of zip ties to make sure your waste gate opens.
Good advice nothing is needed till it goes wrong. Im guessing your kinda new to having a turbo car vag but little stuff like zip tieing vac lines goes along way. More stuff you can prevent from going wrong better off you will be because eventually you prolly will have problems.

Yes because you don't want a vacuum line popping off
I try to use push lock or an fittings for all of my vacuum lines but when I can't I use a small zip tie, works pike a charm
