Anyone done V-Bands on their axle-back?
I’ve noticed all the systems use slip-joints & that some folks have complained about leaks (my first thought).
I’ll be ordering the Borla S-Type for my car soon & have some V-bands laying around. Has anyone else gone this route? Add: Anyone have a site sponsor they recommend for Borla systems? Last edited by gtfoxy; 06-28-2020 at 11:13 AM. |

I believe we used Vibrant IIRC.

What about getting rid of that crushed pipe under the diff? The drivers side looks pretty straight forward but the pass. side has a bend integrated right where the crimp begins, looks to be about a 30degree angle. My plan was to cut it right at the crimp to add a set of V-bands there then cut the Borla where it flairs up for another set of V-bands. |

Don’t worry about the crushed part until you’re doing a full exhaust. No power loss from the crush.

I used these, way way cheaper than the Vibrant and just as nice (I've used Vibrant in the past): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
