Ill get some higher quality hose clamps to replace on those connections.

Yes if they are the ones that came with the kit they are the cheap worm clamps, just replaced mine this winter. Was surprised to see them down there all hidden when up top they were all quality ones.
I can relate to the frustration, finally got my tune just about done except for some belt slippage. Swapping on the griptech pulley I must have put a little too much on the large bolt on the backside of the tensioner, it just seized inside the tensioner. Had to snap the bolt to get it off, new one should be here today, hopefully back on the road again.
Good luck finishing getting your dialed in, I will most likely be doing the same upgrade this winter.
