Tsudo exhaust issue
Tsudo exhaust issue
I just installed mine using all factory hangers and it literally rests on the bumper and makes alot of noise when going over bumps and braking because of it hitting the bumper. What have people done about this? any special hangers for the back or something?
Do u have a link to what they looked like? did u drop the entire thing down or just the back?
bump...this is annoying lol

if you simply do the hangers, u still run the risk of the HOT exhaust actually discoloring and melting your clear/paint.
you'll also want to have a new tip put on, so that it sticks a lil further out, the lip of the tip should be essentially flush with the further extent of the rear bumper.
if your exhaust, under heat, somewhat torque's around a bit like mine did, you'll wanna have a high quality steel plate welded on between two points on the exhaust.
with the hangers, tip, and plate, the tsudo will have no issues. still costing less than the top brands.....
Not really wanting to do all that work for my exhaust,I am sure thats the best way but just swapping out hangers is what im going to try first,Just gets annoying hearing the metal on metal from the exhaust vibrating against the metal hanger location. Magz did u find rubber hangers or those cheap metal ones?

Gotcha...anyone else have issues of the exhaust system hanging down alot in the center of the car? My car is lowered on sportlines and with 3 ppl in the car it scrapes the ground...also from a side look u can see the pipe hanging down,I can get a pic real quick.

This issue really sucks...IDK why it sits so low on my car,it really makes me want to get rid of it,from a low side view it looks like it was installed incorrectly lol.
welllll, ya know, i did offer my advice on how to get it correct. just seems like nobody here was interested.....cause it was doing more than just aftermarket exhaust hangers from vatozone.
mine is the same as eutechnyx. it bothers me and that is the reason why im still stock height on steelies. i dont like the idea of scraping. i already scrape my exhaust on sharp angled driveways and speed bumps. lol

I had to reweld the hangars it took me about an hour. any muffler shop should be able to do it if you cant.
then why did you post this? I installed my Tsudo exhaust yesterday and I bent the stock hangers a little bit to give some clearance of the bumper. The exhaust hangers are the next best thing, and you dont have to jack the car up really. Its easy, takes like 5 minutes

autozone has exhaust hangers that you just bolt into any spot under the car, and then you can adjust the height of the hanger itself. . . mine does hang low in the middle a little bit too. I think I might try bending it up a little bit
