I haven't been able to find them on their site for over a week now as I wanted to compare to BD Diesel's and Dieselsite's but all I can find is the darn clamps!

Here ya go
For my truck I bought 3 hump boots, 3 in and a 3x3.25 and 10 clamps. When you check out the system will ask about your truck so to assure the right parts.

They look nice! Not sure of the quality. I run the diesel site boots and there good pieces. The stock ones are junk and mine were definitely leaking.

I did a bit of research and read a ton of reviews all were positive but the price took a few hits. They are a bit pricy but, most quality thing are. I do hope they work as advertized.

What's wrong with the stock boots? I haven't had any problems with them. Do they fail a lot?

Stock ones don't fail that much. I 77K miles I just replaced one that was leaking.

It's demise was the oil that gets in there from the crankcase vapors.

I took care of that too with a CCV mod.

Coming from Clay and Riffraff I wouldn't worry about quality. He's a fellow powerstroke owner and runs a top notch operation.

I still have stock boots with 180k+ mile. Probably should be looking into new boots since my CCV has been loading my intake with crap. I've since done the mod, but I'm sure the damage has already been done.

They work OK on a stock truck. The oil tends to get to them. When you strat really running hard with big tunes that generate big boost #s is when it becomes apparent. With 40+ psi the stock ones just didnt hold up.
