This has been the cheapest place that I have found. I wanted to know if you guys can help me out by providing information on where should I buy this stuff before I go to ebay.
Thank you guys. in advance.

any that are a multi layer silicone is gonna be best, i wouldnt go too cheap on them, better off doing it rite the first time so you dont gave couplers blowing off under boost all the time, thats no fun. as for the clamps im sure any place that sells them will be just as good as the other.

for the couplers I have found 3 ply and 4 ply. For clamps I will prefer T-bolt clamps. Now I heard that it is good idea if I get the ones that the edges are roll, this is good for preventing damages to the silicone couplers..

i've gotten some from them and they are just as good as the hts ones i have. tbolts are great, but if your piping has a bead, you really don't need em.

The rolled edges are good if you can find them. But honestly, any T-bolt clamp with a locking nut will do you just fine. Since T-bolt clamps aren't ribbed and grooved like conventional worm clamps, they won't damage the coupler.

I didn't check the site you posted for prices, but I would check www.forcedperformance.net or www.slowboyracing.com and check their prices on clamps and couplers. FP is where I bought mine for my IC setup on my old DSM.

if you had all the same size you could go to napa and buy truck gas filler tubing its re-enforced and like $17 per foot for 2.5"

instead of getting rolled edges, i got a center puch and lightly hit it to make a small bump. i did it on four ''corners'' (like north, south, east, west) of the pipes i thought i was going to have problems with.
