Default hks carbon ti welding question, searched already

hi, i just got a HKS universal carbon ti muffler. i've searched under " hks muffler welding, exhaust welding, hks carbon ti welding, etc" i havent gotten a good answer for my question. and here it is: where do i weld on the hanger brackets to get the muffler on the car?? ill prolly have to use the bracket that came with it right?? and if anybody has any information on how they mounted up their hks muffler's i'd greatly appreciate it. i dont wanna mess up my muffler. i've seen a pic of one already mounted up, but i couldnt see it clearly, the bracket was on there and the bracket didnt seem like it had any hangers welded on, but yea, any info on how to get this muffler on would be greatly appreciated. thanks. oh and if you have links i'd appreciate that too.

You have to weld to the brackets, not the muffler itself. It's Titanium mang!

yea, you have to weld directly to the brackets. you may cut them down, bend them, ect to get them where you need them.

remember, dont F* up.

yea. the welding on it looks pretty clean and way more better than anything i could have ever done. hahaha. but yea. thanks for the help!!

just ta let you know.......they got a lil custom bracket thing and bolted it into my subframe to keep the exhaust from moving around, and took the heat sheilds off a WRX exhaust section so my gas tank wont blow up or anything. took em awhile, but i like it.
