Iv used them, they work good except that the clamps break easy if you over tighten them, the seller sent me a new one for free though.

i've used some from a couple of sellers. most are crap. the obx vbands are actually pretty nice??? Another seller that i've been happy with is a guy named wyntomn (I think that's how you spell his ebay name).

yup wyntomn is like emusa. they actually have surprisingly nice parts. Iv ran their mini stainless steel 38mm wastegates on quite a few cars and they always work great and have a top notch finish.
