You only need to replace them if they are torn of one side or completely. All exhausts are loose, this is so when you floor your car, the engine actually moves forward or back, and if the exhaust was not able to flex it would cause studs, bolts, and flanges to break.

my exhaust would wobble around after i had it installed . i took it back and he just put an extra hanger on. it still moves alittle when i rev up, but doesn't wobble

when i first installed my exhaust, everytime i went over a bump or made a turn, it sounded like the cat was hitting the subframe of my car. i took it in and it turned out one of my hangers was broken. i ordered a new one from honda for $10 and the shop replaced it for free. the shop also centered the cat a little more and tightened all of the bolts, and then it was good as new.

you said a shop center your cat for you? how the hell did they do that? I installed a skunk2 exhaust and it doesnt fit correctly. its like i need to **** the whole thing forward. so if you could find out how they moved the cat i could apply it to the rest of my exhaust

lol. perfect conversation i need to get in on becasue im having the same cat problem. when the heat is on or the engine really starts going, the cat sounds like it reattles under idle and at a certain rpm and throttle %. Could it be because i cut off the cat hangar when i took the stock exhaust down? i took the car to hnda and they tightened everything so i know thats good.

IF YOU WANT YOUR EXHAUST TO NOT SHAKE LIKE A RICERRR, DO WHAT I DID. go to cartboy.com and order their urethane exhaust hangers. get smaller than 15mm, maybe 12, and put them on the last on eto two hangers along the exhaust and muff. your exhaust will not shake, ever, even if you for some reason want it to. they work amazing.
