Hello all, I am looking to custom built a 3" v-band downpipe. Was wondering if anybody recommand anyplace that can do this.

PS This is to bolt up to a brand new t4 with 3" vband.

If this is for a 1g, Dave may still have his v-band exhaust for sale.

Vband is on the wrong side :) He'll need one made. Daves is a vband to connect to the O2 housing. Sounds like what this guy needs is a O2 eliminating DP with a VBand connection at the turbine outlet (like the FP30 series)

Yep, 3" vband at the Turbine is what I am Looking for. I have tried to contact Jack, we'll see what happens. I would really prefer someone that knows what they are doing and do it right without taking to the shop and paying 75/hr. I could of just purchase the FP30 downpipe, but don't know if it would work? Looks like it bends sharply down after the turbine(make sense), but then it takes a turn towards the block it seems??!! I don't want to risk it not fitting, especially at $495!! a pop! I did pick up a 3"vband 90 degrees mendrel, but then it faces the oil filter or come very close to it. Have not test fit yet, but will by the end of this week when the T4 gets here :) So, if it fits, I need to fabricate that section to the flex then to the "cat" ;) If not, I need to fabricate the WHOLE section from Turbine to "cat". Any help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Give me a call at 719-392-7122. I can make you a pipe for a lot less than $495, but I need to see the turbo first so I know what parts I need to get. Thanks!

Jack
