v band clamp

[never2loud]

building my turbo setup on my integra ls, and just wanting to know the difference in using v band clamp, or just 4 bolt downpipe. I have not purchased the exhaust yet, and came across this clamp and would like to know if its better or not or no big difference? thanks

its much easier to deal with.

Less of a hassle. I'm tired of bolt type flanges

You don't have to worry about bolts vibrating loose with the v-band either. They make a better seal, so no pesky exhaust leaks. And it is easier to work with like previously stated because with it loose, it acts like a slip joint and you can rotate it to the desired position. So all of these things make up the personal preference. Last turbo setup I built, I tried to v-band eveything that had a joint. To reduce failure. Good luck on your journey!

i would never build a turbo car with bolt flanges on anything ever again

Dump tubes, downpipes, charge pipe connections, turbo outlet, hell next time i do a full over id prolly go with vband turbo exhaust inlet.
