Not to pose accusatory questions, just trying to figure out what to do if this is something I should expect to happen at some point for me.

The problem with the stock pipe is not the C-Clamp, but the flimsy plastic with which the pipe is made.
A properly manufactured metal charge pipe using the same C-Clamp to fasten it to the throttle body is, in my opinion, ideal.
I replaced my stock pipe with the ER piece and it has worked flawlessly.
I have heard internet chatter that ER may be having some quality control issues of late, but have no personal knowledge of this.
