You can get a set of Kartboy poly exhaust hangers. But, only install them on the farside, away from the TC and leave the stock(soft) hangers on the side closest to the TC. The stiffer Kartboys on the farside of the DP will pull the exhaust pipe away from the TC. Also, bend the welded on DC DP flanges near the TC but only on the farside away from the TC.

Oh yeah, before installing the kartboys and bending the flange, first loosen the flange bolts that mate the DP to the Catback section of the exhaust. Retighten the flange bolts only after you`re done tinkering.
