Default Fab9 Tuning EFR V-band tubular turbo kit

After days of searching for a thread about the fab9 efr vband kit, I found very little information on it in terms of people running them or reviews from them. Since Trackspeed isn't making their efr kit readily available I found the fab9 one. Has any one here have their kit?? If so how is the manifold holding up? What are some issues etc? And is there any advantage using the v band system instead of the transition T flange design?
Planning to get the efr 6258 on a VVT engine that's going to be swap in my 97 NA8.

If you are looking for a TSE kit, check with Dan at Tarmac88. He's TSE's offical vendor now. You could also look into a Kraken manifolds (sold by Fab9 now as well). Kraken's manifold if similar to TSE and is cast in material that's more robust than most cast manifolds on the market.

I saw the kraken one too so that's another option. However I want to know more about the tubular one because it utilize the v band clamp. Also because it's tubular lol so want know if has any improvement over the log since there's a lot of turbo kits with log manifold.

May want to ask around if the different A/R size will affect spool for your desired goals. The vband housing is only available in 0.85 A/R while .64 A/R is what's normally recommended we run.

Oh **** didn't notice that thanks for letting me know! I noticed people all recommend .64 a/r but I don't really have a clue what a/r affect spool or how they work D:
Still learning on all the turbo lingos and numbers and what they means please excuse my lack of knowledge
