Awesome! I'm sure a lot of people will be happy to hear these are available.

Very cool. Will there be options for the turbo and downpipe flanges for various style turbos?

In the future, yes

Great idea guys!

jamesm · 06-17-2013, 02:37 PM

The only thing is suggest is that the vband offering would be more suitable. Because vband are awesome and it opens up the turbo selection a bunch. Gaskets are so last decade

I will take my 4 bolt and a gasket over needing perfectly machined surfaces and a pesky V band clamp anyday. Just because it is 2000s bling, doesn't mean it is better.

I've had plenty enough issues with turbo manifold gaskets in the past that ill gladly never deal with again. What is more 'pesky' about a vband clamp than 4 nuts and bolts? I've never seen, or even heard of, anyone having issues with vbands leaking. Gaskets are a constant source of aggrevation anywhere they exist, at least in my experience. Maybe it's my experience building 2 strokes that has predisposed me to hate them lol.

Virtually everything in your engine is required to be perfectly machined to work properly. Borla owners can tell you that gaskets don't negate that

As long as the person welding the V-band flanges does the job right, and doesn't warp the flanges, than they are awesome and far superior to the bolts and gasket method.

Also way easier to do fabrication and installation/removal

I have installed multiple Miata and Subaru exhausts with bling V band flanges that were an absolute pain in the ass to get lined up well enough to get the V band to clamp. I have lots of gaskets in my exhaust. They all work great.

My experience is the exact opposite. My subaru (bug eye wrx) was a pita to change the crappy gasket that came with my uppipe (and didn't seal worth a damn). My miata (mazdaspeed) had a custom vband setup that was on and off a dozen times with no issue.

I guess the lesson here is that they all suck, it's just which area of suckiness to prefer to avoid, alignment or sealing lol.

The V-band would be our Premium manifolds and those will be available for purchase soon as well.
