Catback hanger Question

[jeremy242]

I just got a 2 piece catback for my s13 and it wasn't made with a hanger on the first piece. The first hanger if you were going from the cat back to the tip. How vital is it that this hanger be utilized? I know that it was there for a reason with the stock exhaust but is it necessary? Anyone else using one that dosn't have this hanger? Thnaks

I would try to get one made for you...Im only using the first two hangers on my custom exhaust and then the final two right above the muffler I didnt use.

I'd hang it properly if I were you. My current exhaust problems are relating to that, and it hung down too low for me in the first place.

Depends on how much clearance you have and if it looks like it will be a problem. I would recommend it though.

less hangers or sloppy hanger bushings = possible cracks in exhaust manifold..

highly recommended dude...

Thanks for the help i think that i will just have the middle one welded on./ I just liked the shinny stanless but function over form.
