SZ Catback Installed - issues!

I'm progressing slowly towards Stage III on my 96 TT. Today, I had my SZ cat-back system installed - resonated SS X pipes along with the muffler assembly. Really nice piece of work. The sound is awesome. One issue I have is that the pipe that runs to the muffler is xtremely close to the S-HICAS boots. In-fact, those boots will be toast very quickly if I continue driving. I know I can just get rid of the HICAS, but is there a solution? I used the OEM hangers, but I have the feeling there's aftermarket hangers that would lower the SZ system just enough to clear the boots. Thanks for any help.

I would get a small bar of steel. Cut and bend your own hangers and weld it on to the pipe if you have a welder you can use. That's just the cheap way just fab up your own.
