Default Installing new DV

I'm installing my new APR R1 DV right now and I thought I had some clamps at my house but I don't. Can I zip tie the large hoses or will that not hold? And does the tiny little hose need a clamp because it doesn't have one now? Thanks for the help guys.

I would definately use hose clamps on the large hoses, as far as the little one, I just used a ZIP tie there... but I would definitely put something on it too.

The vac line should be tight enough you dont really need anything, but a cable/zip tie will be enough. You will deff need clamps to hold the dv on. One good build up of boost will blow it off if you dont. Zip ties are not enough here. Go to autozone or homedepot and get some clamps and you are good
