exhaust system dampens a lot of vibrations that would otherwise go into the engine or chassis, rather have the vibrations in the exhaust

Ya I heard that before... but even then its really loose for mine... I will ask about it during the 5K service but was just curious if the Tanabe uses different mounting points to better secure the exhaust than the wobbly rubber ones we have now.
