Got them on my Bee - Dynomax mufflers.

Not sure if the hangers are TTI or Dynomax but if you order a TTI system you get the package. Probably the best you can get.

3" system, Dynamax mufflers, tti hangers which are very heavy duty and they need to be it weighs about 50lb I reckon, not had it on the scales yet.

Must be gutting for you to fit something you can't drill holes in. :D

Blue just put a limiting strap on the hangers out of cord from the silencer to the chassis to stop movement and vibration. Putting and h-pipe in that setup doesn't loot too bad on that set-up. H-pipe helps with removal and refitting and side to side movement.

I could make a new H pipe but that would just make it harder to get the system off at the track, I will make a bolt on strap to go in it's place to aid with stability. Pete, the hangers are on the to do list, I can remove a fair bit of heft without sacrificing strength.

Blue I put ( well I didn't put but I instructed someone else to put ) 3 bolt header collector flanges at each end of my h pipe so that at the track it's 12 bolts to undo and the h pipe drops down , has worked well on the rare occasions I have raced in the last few years.

I did think of doing that but decided the work needed really wasn't worth it. Anyhoo, I've finished cutting and tweaking and I'm happy with the fit now. Still seem to be stuck in an endless cycle of aftermarket parts that don't fit though, all very frustrating....

Yes, it's amazing how so many parts that are specifically made for a particular application, and nothing else, just don't fit. How hard can it be....

It's bad enough when parts don't fit the car but when parts in the same box don't even fit together that really is poor.

Yes the problem seems to have got worse and worse over the last few years and it generally doesn't seem to make any difference if you buy a premium brand - although the TTI systems are really nice 👍
