V band is a different way of securing/clamping the wastegate

I cant really recommend a wastegate for you... at what boost levels?

TIAL 44mm perhaps..


This is what your calling normal (bolt n' gasket)



this is V Band

It may help with be able to unbolt it etc but your not going to gain space by picking V band.

I can see where you're coming from, you can create more room for the screamer pipe. Mine is Vband, which helped because my screamer pipe is just a straight pipe, meaning I could turn the wastegate to where I wanted it the pipe to exit.

You could always fabricate a screamer pipe to bend which way you want though..
