I replaced mine with some Perrin ones http://www.perrinperformance.com/p/2152. I'm running an Invidia N1 and Invidia front pipe with the high flow cat.

Why you need to replace the stock hangers? They can't be seen unless you go under the car and they do the job since they are so new (unless you broke some :D)

Nameless, Perrin, they are all very similar if not the same.

Taking the stock hangers off can sometimes be a pain. The rubber is sometimes very tight and grabby on the metal hangers. A pro tip is to use an aerosol lubricant like WD40 to aid the rubber hanger mounts coming on and off. Makes life just a bit easier.

A pro tip is to buy the clamps that are designed specifically to remove rubber hangers. :thumbup:

My exhaust sites funny one side. Next time we are together i will show you one side is lower than the other. So i went under the other day to look. Out of the 4 rubber hangers 3 look perfect but the 4th is not hanging normal. It looks like it has been squished in and it wont move back to a normal stretched position.

Yup I did this. Also working them in a left to right motion for a bit first will also help make your life easier getting the stock hangers off.

That sounds like install error. I would loosen everything back up until all the hangers are in a non binded position and then tighten things back up.
