So, I picked up an exhaust from Artech.
However, I need to source the v-band clamps.
I was hoping for an ever-awesome recommendation from you yahoos about a place where I can source said v-band clamps. Who makes good v-band clamps for exhausts?

I'm in the same boat as you. I have the Tial V-Bands for the WG but i need 1 more for the flange where the separated DP connects to the main DP. The flanges look like Tial flanges which makes me believe that they are a very specific size that only Tial makes....

I bought mine second hand. I would be very surprised if AR didn't include the V-Bands as they usually come as a full kit (2 flanges and a clamp) when purchasing them for fabrication of the exhaust. You should be fine.

He must not love you. Mine came with clamps, and I just ordered a new clamp and 3 new 3" v-band flanges. My **** hit the ground and bent the clamp and flanges, so I'm cutting it off the downpipe and redoing it. I also had him send me another flange and a pipe so I could make loud noises ![Giggle](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/gay.gif)

Then I welded it, first time back purging and doing all that crap. Figured it was small enough to try it out.
