I know with my WG/BOV they come with a V band flange on em, so you have to use that style clamp.

Its up to you, if you wanna save some money, run cheaper ebay stuff and weld em straight to pipe. Just be careful, if they go.. you either over boost your engine, or over spin your turbo... neither are good.
didnt know the WG/BOV came like that, i thought it just came with a the piece you weld into an existing pipe.

so what your saying is instead of just having the hotside pipes bolt to the existing 3 bolt flange on the truck manifold, remove the flange from the manifold and make a V-Band connection ? im not sure if thats what you mean, got any pics ?
