Well I haven't received my new hangers yet and I don't think anyone else has either so I would hold out a bit longer until they fix it for sure. Mine isn't melting anymore but it is on kind of crooked and looks a bit silly.

I contacted GReddy today. Here is the IM


MisterStrike2008 (5:40:46 PM): I was wondering if there is a status on the new hangers for the older exhausts for the 2008 lancer to solve the melting issue, can you help?
Greddy tech 2 returned at 5:45:15 PM.
Greddy tech 2 (5:46:51 PM): should be within the next 2 weeks.
Greddy tech 2 (5:46:58 PM): are you currently on the list for it.
MisterStrike2008 (5:55:56 PM): I should be, I contacted Mitch quite a while ago by phone.
Greddy tech 2 (6:09:16 PM): whats the name i can check for u
MisterStrike2008 (6:19:06 PM): (My Real Name)
MisterStrike2008 (6:19:24 PM): (My Address)
Greddy tech 2 (6:20:32 PM): ya you are on there
MisterStrike2008 (6:21:33 PM): Awesome! Thank you for your help!
Greddy tech 2 (6:22:06 PM): no problem

Okay, so in a few weeks if people were to purchase the exhaust it should come with those new hangers or do they also have to request them?

got my Greddy a few days ago and put her on... sounds absolutely boss. by far the best exhaust i've heard on a 4 banger, very very few are not ricey and this is one of them. it is something you always notice... so if you're trying to go the subtle route i would not at all suggest it. bearing that in mind, if you drive light enough on the pedal it becomes a very subtle hum.

HP gain in the mid-high range is fantastic. coupled w/my intake and lightweight pulley the car is really starting to show some thrust at higher RPM's. i had a second yesterday when i was driving and thought to myself wait this is still a lancer right?? :grin:

install was easy, use a little WD-40 on the hangers and they come off with a lot less muscle and frustration. this thread helped, and i also used this guy's writeup simply b/c it has more pictures Hector @ Streetunit

there were not "new" hangers in my shipment. i did stretch the middle hanger and will probably continue to stretch it for a few days to give a little more clearance between the bumper. right now looking at about 1/2 in but i don't want to take any chances.

So the 1/2" clearance is what the old hangers gave?


What kind of clearance should the new ones give?
