the auction states that they're missing proper o-rings.
Just go the v-band route, do what you know already works perfect.

Just get the Hargett Clamps...must better, easier to use, American made, etc.

$45 for one connection? That is halfway to a complete CDM charge piping kit. :1

Not many cars need Wiggins/Hargett level hardware.

I think, I am going to put Hargett's on the dodge, I will do a little write up if I go that route.

no but it makes your e-penis bigger :p


actually i just stumbled on those browsing ebay and thought damn thats cheap; didnt even know the hargett clamps existed i really like the design on those...

either way i proably wont run them im fine w/ welded nipples and worm clamps on napa nylon enforced couplers...

my friend might run some on his racecar; he's having big problems w/ blowing couplers and was gunna go w/ some regular v-band but he likes the cinese wiggins clamps but i'll show him the hargett ones

I have a 41 Willys with a big block Ford coming in for a turbo kit and the owner has requested all Wiggins clamps. :y

The hargetts are 1/3 of the price, and are much easier to use. I have them on my civc (i actually had the first set of 3 inch, owners a good friend of mine). Its nice being able to pop off my ic and all my charge piping in less a minute and putting it back on in about about the same time. They've been tested to about 500 times the amount of pressure anyone of us will ever use.

What pressure have they been tested too? I am just curious more then anything.
