TO ALL

Just installed Tom's Exhaust hangers and what a difference. The stock hangers are like silly putty in comparison. The Bosal Catback exhaust barely moves. The vibration is way down. Discovered that the Bosal system get about 1/4 to about 3/8 of an inch longer after it heats up. Thus it was rubbing against the P5's bumper. I removed the two bottom plastic clips and inserted two rubber bushings between the bumper cover and the steel subframe. This gave me the extra 1/4 inch clearence that I didnt know I needed before. The plastic screws/rivets re-instered just fine. Cant remember the thread I read in the past, but to whomever noticed the difference between the 10mm and the 12mm hangers THANKS. The install took about 20min since I knew the 12's where the rear and the 10's the front. Windex worked great as a lubricant for removal. Highly endorse this product. And toTom at Kartboy

Thanks Mickey

I was searching and found this. Wondering if these would be worth purchasing for my G-Fs ride. I purchased the rear section only off of here and was wondering if they would help out much and if they did what they would help.

I installed a set on my P5 with a MazdaSpeed axle back and AWR front mount. A worthwhile improvement if hor nothing else than it keeps the muffler from banging the bumper when I start the engine.

the hangers are great, other than the fact that it transmits some of that vibration into the cabin, especially if you have a header. good luck!

hate to wake the dead, but bought some of these - should be shipped out monday, anything i should be aware of when installing the exhaust hangers? (besides the fronts/10, backs/12) - downloaded instructions for the bushings... anything else I should know on these.

They're a pain in the *** to get on and off. Mine rattle when I start the car, but only then.

Roddimus Prime

use a lot of wd-40 when removing and installing them....grease em up good cause they'll fight ya.

Jackelope

wd-40 - the great cureall!

rashley> - mine wiggle/rattle alot - ask matty

I just put these on my car. Except for putting the wrong size on the rear initially (don't ask), they went on with no trouble. Like Roddimus says, use WD-40. You will have to put some elbow grease into pushing the Kartboys on, especially on the forward muffler mounts where they face opposite each other. I have noticed more cabin vibration at idle, but it isn't that bad (I have a Racing Beat cat-back).
