Siliconeintakes V Bands & Clamps??
Siliconeintakes V Bands & Clamps?? 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.

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.

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?
