I was merely pointing out the silicone joiners used for cars & they don't have springs as far as I'm aware. Intercooler hoses can collapse with age or perhaps cheaper, thinner ones? Maybe that was the issue I had read? Was just keen for others experience, that's all.....

The boost creap may have come about from the use of the crap non-layered silicone vacuum lines sold on EBay, not the intercooler type so I may have mislead you on that one.......
