Ok, I did my research on the dumps and from what I have read is that they make the car sound good. One thing I did not find is how people support the exhaust after u remove your tailpipes. I'm thinking about getting dumps but do I need to get hangers for them also? or do I just add the dumps and go from there? if so where do I mount the hangers?

I have dumps, and it makes the car sound wicked, my flowmaster mufflers have hangers on them supporting them. Check to see if yours do.

I'm running the 40 series Flows but I have not paid any attention to see if they have hangers, I'll take a look today. I also read that people face the dumps side way instead of facing down and advantages or just preference? Any power or torque lose with dumps?

the mufflers should have hangers on them so you wont have to worry about it

I have dumps, but I'm switching to 2.5" tailpipes. The sound of dumos is good and all but I just want a nice hollow tone from my 40 series, the dumps seem to hide that sound a little.

Gotta love the dumps. It does'nt matter which way the dumps are angled performance wise. But it does help to angle them out so you dont get a contact high sitting at stoplights.
