got the 3dr running yesterday and the join between the turbo and downpipe was leaking exhuast gas, upon trying to tighten the v-band the fooking threadded part sheared off!

so i needs a new v-band.

not measured the size of it yet, but any idea where i can get a DECENT one from please?

cheers christian, i have just thought of a way i can mod the existing one, to use a propper screw. but i suspect just buying one will be the easy option lol.

Don't fuck around. It's not worth it. Infact, I think I have a brand new one at work somewhere. I'll look tomorrow.

cheers lads, ill look for my measuring stick later and see what size it is

Fudgey

iTrader: (4)

ok its 90mm or 3.5"

does anyone have a pic of the CR turbo ones, as i wont be able to tell over the phone lol

all i can find is this style



and that is like the one i had where the threaded part sheared off.

i have seen some others that look to use an m8? maybe screw, not a threaded bar.

bollocks just been looking at the chris tullet website, i think i may have sussed why it was leaking...

there is a male and female ring that the v band clamps together...

mine just has flat edges that butt up against each other to clamp....
