Couldn't find anything through searching. I'm curious if anyone here has used V bands and their clamps from siliconeintakes.com?? And what you thought of them? Also see they sell gaskets to seal them.

I wanted to get some for my headers but not break the piggy bank, on a NA car.

silconeintakes.com couplers and t-bolt clamps are great
Never purchased any v-bands from them but everything else has been good quality.

you get what you pay for. RPS has great products and i use there vbands on about half of the stuff i build, but nothing comes close to the quality of a clampco vband ring set or vibrant!!!

you can really tell by how good they weld. Vibrant FTW!!!

I have couplers and t-bolts from them also, they seem to be pretty nice.


As for RPS, thanks for the suggestions. I know about their v bands, but I'm not looking to spend nearly $80 on SS 3.5" vbands.

This is just for my headers, not a turbo/SC piping. I just want to be able to easily remove my exhaust if/when needed.

My last v band (2 inch stainless) was less then 20 dollars and was awesome quality and even had the locating ring.

I've have ordered V-bands from both rps n silicon, they are both decent products. I just used silcons mild steel Vbands on the DP Back part of my exuast and they welded up nicely. Just make sure you hit the surface with a wiz wheel to take the aluminized coating off first or it wont weld up nice. I don't have a TIG welder so that's why I use mild steel.

Sounds good, did you use their Vband seals they sell?

No I used the perma-gasket it's works just as good IMO. Plus its not hard to scrap off and put more on next time you have the exhaust off the car

Summit has vbands now too. They look and work nicely.

I just bought vband clamps from silicone intakes. They are pretty heavy duty for the amount of money they cost. I was very pleased.

I went with the ones from summit, mostly because I ordered yesterday afternoon and they were delivered today. Gotta get this **** done asap.
