Wastegate and V band clamp

**1jz68u** · 25-10-2011, 12:25 PM

Hi guys, I just bought a gt35r turbo kit off a guy, it came with a turbosmart pro gate 48 wastegate but it is missing the screamer pipe and the v band clamp on the outlet. I have asked a couple of local exhaust places and they claim that the clamp is a specific turbosmart clamp. I find this a little hard to believe.

Does anyone have any ideas on where I can get one?

Will upload some pics soon

Hope that worked

Thanks

I doubt highly the clamp is a special "turbo smart" clamp, however maybe they meant the the "v band flange", which would be on the screamer pipe... Which you don't have, is a specialty "turbosmart" part???

I can't help you on where to locate an existing one, but I will be able to save you some $$$ if you wanted to buy new...

Let me know if you'd like me to find out.

i cant find any clamps matching the pictures, i have a normal vband clamp but the lip is too high so it fouls on the other one.

ended up ordering from turbosmart, $100 for 2 parts

oh well they should arrive in the next day or so.

Also the guy from turbosmart recommended that i get someone from a "turbosmart dealer" to order it for me as they will be able to do a better price. A mate that works at bursons said that once shipping was added it was actually more expensive than ordering it off the website.
