Hanger kit for Flowmasters? What does it do?

Hey guys, I'm gonna be buying these later in the week after I get paid...

http://www.americanmuscle.com/flowma...ck-0510gt.html

Wanted to know if the $35 hanger kit is needed? I have a stock '06 GT. I emailed the guy who is installing them for me and he responded with this...

"From what I can see from the installation kit, is that the system utilizes the factory hangers. I do not think it will be necessary to order that hanger kit."

What do you guys think? It says on the website it provides a cleaner installed appearance? Just want some opinions from people who actually have these on their Mustangs. Thanks!

The hangers on the early s197's were of low quality, from what I have heard. I'd guess the new kit would replace all the hanger hardware with better quality pieces. Is it necessary? No.

I installed Flowmasters on my 09 GT and used the stock hangers. Been two years now and all is well.
