i NEED a vband clamp for the manifold side for a Tial 44mm Wastegate. the sooner the better, before the weekend if at all possible!! if anybody can help me out, please shoot me a PM! seems nobody wants to seperate the clamps from the rest of the wastegate "kit". hopefully somebody has one laying around they are willing to get rid of!

thanks!

 

joe i canlet you borrow mine or take mine and get me a new one or something like that

 

Wrong forum

 

what's the first race your trying to make?

haha tony, smartass

 

i would neeed it back in say like 2 weeks or a new one

trying to get the car running and tuned the frist week of may

 

cool man i'll keep that in mind if it comes down to that. it would be so much easier to just buy one though! i thought i got lucky and had 2 spare flanges...but i forgot that these damn things have male/female flanges......and unless my manifold is into lesbians......im going to have to get a couple flanges now too. DOH!

 

did you try atp yet joe?

 

i think thats one of the only places i havnt tried..probaly try them tomarrow.....been trying to avoid califonia. spend 7000 dollars in shipping for a 4 dollar part......well with my luck that damn clamp will be 6000 dollars

 

haha yeah i mean i got shipped **** goround from them 16lbs worth of stuff and it was $11 they should have it. if you find them let me know where i have to make myself a dump tube

 

cool will do...making myself a dump tube as i type this

 

hey joe you ever get a hold of that chassis guy yet

 

We have a ton...even used ones. Send me 10.00 and I'll ship it to you.

 

your my new favorite person i'll give you a call tomarrow. how about a male manifold side flange? i'll trade you a chick flange for a dude flange haha

actually i wonder if they even make what im looking for.....now that i think about it...probably not....uh oh

I have the manifold to wastegate flange...it's called the inlet flange. I also have the outlet flange and clamp for the dumptubes.

 

im good on the dump tube stuff....

here is my problem.

my intercooler is way too big, and i was a pain in the *** on myself and cut and welded a bunch of stuff in the front of the car to get the intercooler to sit as far back (towards the motor) as possible so that i wouldnt have to cut the bumper all crazy. it turned out awesome. this also involved some cutting and trimming of the headlights one of my wastegates hits the intercooler, so im trying to make an adaptor off of the manifold, then into the wastegate...so another words 2 more flanges, and 1 extra clamp. the one end that bolts to the wastegate is fine, but included in the tial box is just a female end. the manifold already has a female end on it.....so i have 2 female flanges matted together. not good. there is no reason for them to make a male end on that side, because thats where the wastegate is supposed to go which is the male end. each wastegate came with an extra female flange...so i have enough flanges, i just need a male flange, which i doubt that make. i wonder if the v-bands will seal enough like that.......im not sure what to do at the moment.

but i do still need that clamp regardless!

 

If Andrea doesnt have one, I do have an account with ATP Joe and could get one out to you, I charge you my cost man plus shipping

Give me a call tomorrow and you'll have it in a day.

 

haha yea i figured that was confusing as hell.

cliff notes.

intercooler too big

wastegate hits intercooler

need to make adaptor..... flange - 90 bend - flange

manifold has female end, wastegate is male end

since im clamping a flange to another flange......its 2 female flanges clamped together

thats a problem!


probably still confusing, but i'll give you a call tomarrow for the clamp!

thanks terry, i appreciate the offer, but it sounds like andrea has what i need and is 1 day shipping away!!
