So, is it difficult to swap them out? I'm gonna order some, but my TRD exhaust is going on this weekend.

 

Nah not very difficult. The stock ones came off my TRD and the new ones went on without any lube. Just a little elbow grease and a twisting back and forth motion while you are pulling them off and pushing them on.

 

so besides the moving around, whats the benefit?

 

Drastically increased torque. It knocks my socks off.

 

Swing Batter batter, Swing!

 

Really? I only have my TS hangers toward the rear because the way the Descendant exhaust is, it is redonkulasly hard to get some in the middle on. The hanger arms do not line up very well and only the soft stock hangers will bend right to match up. Anyway, do you really feel like it increased torque? How could this be? I am not questioning what you are saying... Trying to learn more.

 

Ahhh no, no I was being sarcastic and It was very early in the morning when I posted lol. Nah from what I can tell there isn't any performance gain from installing these. I just don't want to look like a noob with a shaky exhaust lol.

In theory, I would think that these would provide the same sort of gain that you may see from a motor mount. Since the exhaust isn't allowed to twist and shake with the engine revs, you should feel better throttle response and the types of improvements that you'd find in a motor mount review. Obviously, you won't feel a single thing just by installing these mounts. I just feel like that's what someone could argue would be a benefit outside just stopping exhaust shake.

^^
Everything I just typed could be completely false as well...just thinking out loud lol.

Either way sorry for misleading you!

 

woo hoo! lol!

 

Not at all. I looked for hours to find a benifit besides the shaking to stop and found nothing. When you said "more torque" I was like...wth? Then I thought maybe I felt nothing because I did not use all the hangers...lol

 

While I can't imagine it would be any huge performance gain, but certainly the more solid your car, the better.

 

Did you get all of your hangers on with the Descendant? I fought forever and even called in an RMA to the strongest dude I know and he couldent get them on. The gap between the the exhaust arms and car arms is just too much.

 

bump while i look at the sportline pics

 

Looking at going a little lower? The drop would look badass with those 370s.

 

haha maybe

you like ebachs? how is the comfort/handling?

did u scrape on anything yet?

 

Honestly I didn't find the ride any different from stock. I guess from the progressive spring rates which is why I picked them over Tein.

Nothing has been scraped and the only time I ever rubbed was with spacers.

 

Oh, and DEFINITELY an improvement in handling over stock. I'm much flatter and more confident when taking ramps at high speed.

 

what rubbed with spacers?

so comfort and noise level is the same as stock?

 

The front tires hit the wheel well when I had your 15s on. Only during large dips at high speeds. 95% of the time I was perfectly fine.

 

ah ____ then i will def rub cuz tires are 0.2" bigger in radius and poke out ~5mm more then stock

 

Get some camber bolts and camber the ____ out of the fronts.
