If you use the large zip ties on the 4 rubber hangers on the rear of the 2 rear mufflers you will eliminate most of the movement. I have not experienced any added vibration or noise. I installed them by looping them around the perimeter/outside of the rubber hanger's outer edge. Just make sure as you tighten the ties so that the tips are aligned in the opening. Worked great for me!

using zip ties to raise the exhaust up is okay.. what he meant was if you tighten the exhaust and keeping it in one place it will cause unwated vibration.

ps.. post pics of them girls when you get them!!! lol

Hahaha!!! So0o0o0 true!!! I got a GF and I wanna buy some mods for the car, but I just gotta worry about feeding one more mouth with my paycheck. Hopefully she buys me something for my car. Since she was able to buy me exhaust, intake, blow-off valve, and ECU Upgrade all in the same day for me(this was all for my previous car. it was a Vdub btw).
