Wink HKS Hi-Power Install?

Looking to pick up a hks hi power dual exhaust setup soon for my ap1 and had a question about install, more specifically the rubber hangers. I'm currently running a single and I forgot to keep the oem rubber hangers on the left side, so should I buy new oem hangers or use the one's that hks supplies and how close/far would they sit from the ap1 exhaust cutout? Any help would greatly be appreciate

Use the HKS hangers. The tips will fit nice and snug in the exhaust cutouts.

He's got an AP1. On an AP1 the exhaust fits better with the HKS hangers. On an AP2 the exhaust fits better with OEM hangers. I've had the exhaust on both cars.

They are about the same.

ive had 3 hks exhaust, it depends on how you bolt up the exhaust not on the hangers.

do you mean when you assemble the exhaust such as tweaking the 2 canisters at the split?
