I try few things , when i assemble the exhaust on the floor every hanger braquet are parralel, the passenger side seem finehttps://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2016/03/th_f9319cd4735323abeac1c53f6d02f4b2_zpsu-1.jpg (http://s991.photobucket.com/albums/af38/Leturnracing/?action=view&current=f9319cd4735323abeac1c53f6d02f4b2_zpsuft9x3 th.jpg)
On the driver side i think the hanger was weld the wrong way and should be the mirror of the other side ,like the black marker line.

I can post some photos up for you on Monday if someone hasn't already done so by then...your muffler hangers that attach to the seat belt gussets seem to be on the wrong sides of the car, try flipping them one for the other.

Here's a photo of the passenger side muffler hanger in its correct orientation on the seat belt gusset...the driver side sits on top of the gusset with the hanger rod pointing to the outside of the car in the same way.125413

If the angle in the bracket go on the top of the seat belt gusset , the rod should be weld like the green tape on the brackethttps://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2016/03/th_66e8e0999ff1a58685826fdfbb6eeacd_zpsq-1.jpg (http://s991.photobucket.com/albums/af38/Leturnracing/?action=view&current=66e8e0999ff1a58685826fdfbb6eeacd_zpsqps3fz px.jpg) thanks again for the support

thanks again for the support[/QUOTE]I just realized that the angular position of your gusset on the driver side is opposite of the gusset on the car that is depicted in the development file. Because of that, the possibility exists that the gusset on the other side of your car is also located with a slightly different location and I'm thinking it is due to the hanger rod angling upward slightly in your last photo. Is your car a Canadian built car? Here's the photo of the driver side hanger, which shows the opposite angle orientation of the gusset...125426

Yep, that's the difference I believe...thanks for identifying the source of your floors, I'll have to send out a notice to the guys in Tech Service.
