There are no functionality issues or anything with stock rubber hangers however it does shake a lot and friends tell me it looks ghetto when they're behind me. It DOES move around which is why I think it's best to replace them ;)
I have their polyurethane exhaust hangers on my '09 and have to say it tucked the exhaust back up to where I wanted. The install is a pain, well I don't know how much room there is to install each one on the '11+ tC but the '05-10 a few were difficult because of lack of room. When I ordered mine it took about a week for them to show, they could be temporarily out, give them a call.

Hey guys, I just received my descendant exhaust today and when I opened it I saw that I only got 2 of the separators that goes in-between the exhaust parts. I was looking of others pictures that other people had and they had 3. Is this a problem or does it only come with 2?

If your talking about those things that go between the parts of the exhaust when you bold them together, I only had two aswell and just used them on the exhaust only, the part that went up to the downpipe area I didn't use one, or I used the stock one (which is silver I believe)
I can't remember cause I did mine a while back

Maybe give em a call to be super sure

what enzie said is right. only 2 gaskets. use them between the 3 cat-back parts. for the connection to the downpipe, i think you use the stock one if there is one or without. i don't remember either siince it's been a while..

I don't think it's really necessary, I use my stock hangers and they work just fine!

Yeah, the only reason you want Torque Solutions hangers is to avoid looking like an amateur with a shaky exhaust.

First off I have followed this thread and read the whole thing 3 times. What would like to know about is the power loss down below 3k rpms. Is it bad or barely noticeable? Dyno graph shows a pretty big drop. I don't want my car to have a "peaky" engine that needs to be revved high to accelerate under normal driving conditions. This is the one thing holding back from purchasing this exhaust. Everyone who has owned this exhaust for a while, I would greatly appreciate your opinions. I want the exhaust but I am afraid of having less bottom end torque.
