Ok I'm the dummy here. Could someone give me an explanation as to how exactly these should fit up?
I've measured 3" for the flange on the back of my H1C turbo. Does that mean I need a 3" clamp?
I'm thinking that I need to have a maybe 2.75" downpipe to have a flange at 3"? With a 3" downpipe the two mating up looks like this.
And that doesn't look like a v-band clamp would do anything on that kind of joint.
I'm getting confused because the exhaust I bought has a 3" downpipe and the place I bought it from said it takes a 3" clamp. That doesn't seem right to me.
My main problem is that I bought this engine without a downpipe and I've never seen what the connection should look like. Plus it doesn't help matters that the clamp that I did buy looks like it is a 3.5" clamp not a 3".
Thanks :beer:
