Simple Exhaust Questions

No leaks at the turbo or bottom of the downpipe, only my one connection. But when I did it last time the bottom of the downpipe and the mid pipe connecitons showed a little leakage. Perhaps the Vibrant ones would be better because they have a little lip that fits inside the corresponding v-band.

They work fine, they're just hard to align perfectly after welding etc. That being said though I'll probably opt for a slip-on transport truck style connector if I ever re-do it.
