V-band clamp issues

Recently installed the Megan racing down-pipe. The pipe itself is nothing amazing but it defiantly gets the job done. Smooth tone and noticeable gain. (Could just be me) Anyway, the V-band clamp i got for the piping was a half inch too small and it will need to be welded. Should i go for the right size clamp for $45 - $65, or get it spot welded for around the same price?

Another question, currently driving without my 02 sensor in, sounds like riding open yet not as loud. Ordering a new one soon, just wondering if there's any harmful effects of driving without it.

Could use the help,
Matt

With no o2 sensor your car may run irregularly and might throw codes. And v clamps are kinda tricky to put on so I'd try again you have to make sure your lining it up right. If it is too small get the right one...

Yeah the flanges are definitely in, going to pick up a larger one.

Thanks
