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!

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.
