Boost oddity?

Just curious if any of you may have experienced this. The intercooler pipe on the passenger side that has two 90 degree bends in it and eventually goes to the throttle body on mine likes to "push" the hose off the intercooler. I suspect the clamp is worn or failing, but it never completely pops off since the first 90-degree bend allows the hose to stop against the HPFP cover. I find it a little annoying, and considered getting an exhaust pipe made up with two bends and using silicone bits on each end like tuner-cars with aftermarket turbo's usually do. In the mean time, I'll probably just by a 3" diameter hose clamp and double up, but I found it a little odd, and mildly amusing such a small turbo makes enough boost to push the hose off a bit.
