yeah, that would be my guess too, seeing as how a V-band doesn't use a gasket of any kind to rely on for a perfect seal.



anyways, can't wait to see this thing running 100%...don't forget to make some videos.
I was referring to the CHRA not being in the right position. It needs to be rotated counter clockwise a bit if your looking at it from the exhaust housing.
