just purchased what seems to be a full scorpion system for an e30 ,

i have a six branch manifold so wont be useing the front section of the system .

and will be retaining the gear box clamp .

but im a bit confused as there are 2 hangers that are on the center box of the scorpion system that arnt on the original system ,and i cant see where the hangers are for the rubbers are on the car ?

also the scorpion doesent use the hanger that is on the rear beam ?

are there optional hangers i can purchase from bmw or scorpion ?

has any one had this problem b4 ?

thanks gareth

Normally on a Scorpion (on my full lemans system anyway) you would have a bracket on the downpipes connecting to the gearbox, nothing at all on the centre box, a bracket on the pipes after the centre box/before the back box connecting to the rear beam then your two normal exhaust hangers around the rear box. Sounds like your might have been modded by the previous owner??

Get some pictures up so it's easier for us to see what your on about :D
