you got the springs on where the flange meets the downpipe?, normally you pout a ring of paste inside the pipe the other pushes into if that makes sense..

I have the same problem.

I bet its blowing where the de-cat meets the middlebox.

Take the clamp off, wack sum paste all round the connection then wack the clamp back on and let it dry for around 1 hour.
