    I know this has been discussed 3784972583 times but all of the information from searching varies so I was looking for something more definitive.
    I am installing my TBB and DV's tomorrow night and am going to go to the hardware store/autozone tonight.
    What other clamps/hoses/etc. should I pick up while I am there.

    Thanks in advance.

    Dude, you have a Nogaro S4 Avant. You should be just sitting there admiring it as one of your possessions instead of driving it.

    Kidding of course. Check out your TBB clamps as well. Have you ever pressure tested?

    I did my DV myself and got 2 clamps for the 2 large hoses coming off the DV. The small vacum hose coming off the DV can be pushed on and will fit tightly. The clamps on the OEM DV are a BITCH to get off. Have fun. I used tin snips to get them off, it will take you awhile to get them off, plus your arms start to hurt from holding them up lying on your back. Not to sure about the TBB.

    lying on your back? what DV's did you do? haha...just bring the TBB and diverters to the store with you. I think the TBB oem clamp is reusable,but the DV clamps i think are #6 clamps,but not 100% positive. TBB and DV's only take around 20-30 minutes to do. not too hard.

    when taking off the one time use clamps,use pliers (needle nose or reg) grab the nub (technical term) and just twist the pliers,should undo and pull off.
