I have a feeling that the screws shipped with the unit aren't tapered thread, which is why they never tighten properly. Whoever buys the FTP pipe that I'm selling will get both the stock FTP screws and some proper tapered plugs as well. If I were installing again today, I'd buy some tapered plugs and install them. I'll post a link to plugs when I find them; they shouldn't be expensive.

Great tip. Curious why you're getting rid of the FTP pipe though.
