Trouble installing Tomei 60s catback

It's seems all of the reviews for this exhaust say it's a 30 minute install and no one has had any problems with it but I can't seem to get the slip joints to stop leaking. I have all of the pipes butted up to the stoppers, the spring hooks lined up, the clamps torqued to spec and springs installed per instructions but it leaks at all 3 connections. I've tried moving the clamps to different areas of the slip joint (not really sure at what point the clamp is supposed to go) and I still get leaks. I'm afraid to torque it any higher than the spec in the instructions but has anyone had to do so? Any tips would be appreciated. Really scratching my head over here.
