Vband vs on-center compression wheel
I heard Vband turbos were better than on-center ones. Is that true? I would like to know the differences beetween the two if there are some.
Thnx a lot

One has a v-band turbine output, the other has a 4-bolt flange. V-band is nice if you have to take the connection apart a lot. V-band doesn't require a gasket. The fasteners on bolted flanges can come loose, which won't happen with a v-band connection.
The connection type doesn't have much to do with the quality of the turbo itself. If you provide some context to your question, you might get better answers. If you are considering turbos or turbo kits, the connection type should not be your main focus.
Neither one is "on center" -- they are both "tangential".
