Default FMIC pipe leak

Hey guys,

I have a FMIC installed... however with all my clamps and everything, it still doesn't seal correctly. Air blows by on one of the seals right after the turbo, causing a loud squeal. I can adjust the pipe (just pull up/push down) while revving the engine and make the squeal stop or get worse... by sealing the connection or making the gap larger.

Now my question:

How to I get these silicone pipes to seal correctly? The way I have it set up there always a small gap that isn't sitting properly, something with the bends or the tightness of the clamps, that allows boost pressure to squeak on by,

Please, someone tell me what I'm doing wrong.
