At least replace the ones for the spider that will take 4. The others will probably be okay. Order the the same size as the boot. Clay would be better help on that.

IDK about e99 but if this helps, you will need 6 3" and 2 3 1/2"..the 3 1/2 are for the inter cooler, the other 6 are for the spider and tubes..

The T-bolt clamps are good for pretty much ever so long as they don't snap in half.

Yep. Get the nice clamps for the spider to plenum boots if you have or are putting in the plenum inserts, which I HIGHLY recommend.

The e99 has the 2" plenums so you mit need smaller clamps there. When I bought three inch clamps I had to unscrew them all the way to get them on, and the three and one half were to big. Three and a half should work on the intercooler but I didn't replace them. I believe 3 1/4 should work everywhere except on the intercooler itself late model.

Plenum inserts... if they exist for E99. You're going to increase your grip and the necks of the plenums lack... er... spine?
