no its not binding down it will only clamp on the top of the v band the turbo and flange combo are too wide for the clamp man this sucks...oh its also hit the manifold where my wastegate goes...did it do that to you
besides that it looks great wrapped and on the car but it wont clamp down it will hold but not all the way like it should...as of now i will defenatly have horrible exhaust leak

Looks very nice still 
did you stud or dowel the motor at all? i just hope you dont break your iron trying to push that much HP through an s5 block and have reliabilty probs. with the hard work you have into this project
that is why i am going with a 13brew now..... the castings are huuuuge compared to even a renforced s5 iron
I found out mine cracked so this is the reason for the fd motor now...... i was ponering pinning or studding my current block but opted for the rew
this was only on 370 wheel on a 57 trim with hard drag launches and a short time at 400 rwhp on a pt67....just started seeping oil one day

i really like how you used the allen bolts for the manifolds and other parts!
