Make sure that you have the thick metal blocks that are in the clamps facing the correct direction.  If not, they definitely will not seal.  Can you post a picture of the clamp?  I can tell you if they are assembled correctly.  Also, they should be torqued to 60ft/lbs.

ricky,

I'm not the guy to help as I am unfamiliar with the Solo system, but I do know that Spiky can help!  He is very familiar with the system.  PM him, he responds quickly if he is available.

pm him spikey he is a pro, I have installed a few of these and those band clamps need to be on correctly or they will leak, I did the same thing with the very first one I ever installed. If you take a few pics we can def tell you if they are on right

Also, make sure the clamp that you used is the correct diameter.  With exhaust kits, sometimes the clamps are different sized depending on what diameter pipes they are sealing.
