I didn't, but it does hang down allot more then I was comfortable with, so I decided to order 2 urethane hangers for the mid pipe from www.kartboy.com, but there are special instructions when ordering some for the tC:

I'm quoting my buddy 2fast4you, he's the one that helped me with this:

They will cause the tip to hang close to the bumper as well, but what I did was drive my tC on the freeway (to heat up the hangers), bent the tip down an inch with my foot and let it sit overnight. It settled to half and inch from the bumper; no burning and no bouncing exhaust.

You only need 2 for the mid pipe thou, he was talking about his exhaust. Mine is nice and stiff now and there is no play, I love it, it hangs much higher now, its where it needs to be now.

i was actually talking about the resonators themselves but that was also useful information that would help me and any other on this forum.

No prob. I just wanted people to know what if you get a big resonator like mine 40" it will hang down and stretch out the rubber hangers, so you might want invest in the urethane ones.

No gains. No loss either as long as the resonator is at least 2.25" diameter and is not louvered.

I've been told by 2 different muffler places, thats you do not loose power by adding resonators, just as long as its a straight through set-up, then its cool. BTW..its raining out here in Cali(San Fernando Valley), so I'll record some clips of my exhaust when it stops raining, hopefully by Monday or Tuesday.

I have one 22" Magnaflow resonator and I there is no rasp with my MMW header. I do want it to sound a little deeper so Im gona maybe throw on another 18" Mag. Resonator or something.
