Mine had no exhaust leak at first, then the grease burned off and I had a slight exhaust leak. It took about a week and the two ends expanded/contracted to each other and now...no exhaust leak.

Yeah where the two ends of the clamp come together there is a pretty good sized gap due to the way it is shaped, thats the only spot I see there being a real problem.

From the picture. I can see you need the v-clamp flange for both sides, the turbo and downpipe. I would have someone with turbo experience weld the flange to the turbo correctly. Did you get the flanges to use with the vclamp?

I don't have flanges for both sides of the v-clamp. I think i'm just going to have the guy thats going to do the welding make it work.
