Exhaust Hangers - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Probably a dumb question but i'm still pretty new to the game..

I'm looking for some hangers that will move my Borla Exhaust closer to my bumper. I can move the exhaust fairly easily with my hand and I notice that the exhaust does a little sagging as well after a few days.

Anyone have any information on some stiff hangers that may be a bit shorter?
Any info would be much appreciated!!

I think I have two kartboy ones on my car that came with my nameless axleback. They are much stiffer than the stock ones, but I don't know if they are any shorter.

Perrin, Cusco, and Torque Solutions are good options as well.

id assume kb will start making shorter/longer hangers for our cars. Be warned though, new poly hangers are a BITCH to take off.

And they transmit more noise and vibrations to the car...

They are easy to remove with WD 40 silicon spray. Highly recommend.

I always wondered if they did that. I think I might swap them today and see if it changes the sound.

They do look like they will be a bitch to take off.

I picked these up recently, best bang for buck in my opinion...

IIRC the KB hangers are the same dimensions as the stock hanger, but since they don't stretch, they are effectively shorter. KB also makes longer hangers, but that dosent sound like what the OP wants. The long hangers are for exhausts that rub or don't quite fit right, or if you want that low slung look.

Do your tips hang low
do they wobble to-and-fro
can you tie them in a knot
can you tie them in a bow...

couldn't resist.

Since duck tape won't work ...... I'd suggest baling wire ....

That's awesome lol i don't blame you at all.
I looked at my exhaust today and the passenger side tip you can move quite a bit. But the driver side not so much. I looked under the car when i moved it and it looks like the hanger is sliding back and forth when i move it.
Its a little bit frustrating because i thought borla exhausts would be the highest quality.
Its probably the hangers but do you guys think a stiffer hanger wouldn't move back and forth?
