Exhaust Clamps.

Are these any good or should I order something different? Jeg's sure seal exhaust clamps. http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS/JEGS-Sure-Seal-Exhaust-Clamps/1020036/10002/-1

Not sure, but I need something better as well. My FRPP Stingers keep getting loose in the factory clamps.

As far as exhaust clamps go in general can you over tighten them?

You might try some Red Permatex before you spend some money on new clamps. I never had problem with my GTA Clamps.

Those Jeg's clamps will likely deform the pipe if you cinch them down good and will make taking things apart fun. I've always had good luck with the Walker/Dynomax band clamps..

It just depends on who you ask. Some guys like band clamps (me), some like u-clamps.

I'd probably just go to AutoZone or PepBoys and get some clamps though.

I use 4" wide band clamps. They are much better at sealing the joint without crushing (when installed correctly). $5 at NAPA.

Stepped Band Clamps have always worked well for me. They are the best for slip-fit connections. The 4" wide clamp has a step in it that helps seal the 2 different diameter pipes. It fits and seals much better than the regular band clamps. Also I spray it down with copper gasket seal.
