Default New MODS with little problem!

Just installed my HKS Hi-Power, debadged, with a crome trunk bar! Pix soon to come! Already addicted after my Megans got put in!

But I ran into some height stance between my mufflers. My right muffler hangs a little lower then my left one. Any suggestions? I've heard some new rubber hangers or other methods would help. Any more? Also, where can I get them from?

It sounds deep, yet pretty mean when revving! The seller forgot to mention the resonators in the muffler were removed. So I believe it sounds a tad louder. =] Pix and video soon!

I have the Hi-power on my Gs3, and I LOVE IT!!! anyways, I had the same problem with the height thing. (left was lower) and I just got a hose clamp (type you use with intake filter and stuff) and tightened the rubber hanger until it was even. I didn't know if it would last, but its been a good 5-6 month with no problems...

Thin clamps to fit through the hangers correct? Thanks!
