For those of you with V Band's on your turbos...

So... am I going to need a flex pipe after the turbo (3" mandrel bent, all the way) if I use a V Band off the turbine housing?

or does the V have any play, and will be ok without the flex pipe?

don't know why you would need a flex pipe. You can mandrel bend 3 inch pipe to work fine. There is no play in the V-band.
