Simple question.
When installing the new exhaust and down pipe, can clamps and v-bands be reused, or should everything be new?
Same question for the gasket between the turbo and down pipe.

My V-band was in decent condition, and I reused mine myself.
Regarding the gasket you speak of, I had a new one on hand, and it was easier to use a new one vs. reuse the old one.

If the clamps still work well, you might as well use them.
If the clamps are in good shape, I would reuse them.Originally Posted by Channelbouy
If the gasket doesn’t have any tears in it you could reuse it but you would be better off getting a new one just in case the old one leaks.

Thanks for the suggestions!
Will probably get new if nothing else for "Piece of mind" and how at least one thing usually goes sideways when working on things.
