Why does my turbo hose keep blowing off?

How do you stop pipes from popping?
Pipes that vibrate against solid objects can produce loud rattling sounds. You can often stop this noisy problem by simply securing the pipe with straps or adding cushioning around the pipes.
What will a boost leak cause?

Do I have a boost leak?
Applying too much air pressure without regulating psi can cause the oil seals to blow out. Listen for any hissing noise—this will indicate a boost leak. If the air pressure gauge indicates no buildup of pressure or does not hold for less than a second, that’s a sure sign that a major leak exists within the engine.

What happens when intercooler leaks?
A leak in the intercooler lines will fail to supply the required amount of air under the optimal pressure, thereby affecting the air-fuel ratio of the engine. This will either cause the engine to run rich or lean. In minor leak cases, there will be a lag in acceleration and an extra turbo whine.
Why are my pipes popping?
Popping noises inside of water pipes can be caused by mineral buildup. The buildup creates a rough coating on the inside of the pipes, which results in the formation of air bubbles that burst and pop once the water heats up.
Why do my pipes click?
