Secondary Downpipes Mounting

I am getting ready to order some secondary downpipes. However I noticed a lot brands such VSRF, ER, etc. don’t have brackets to mount the downpipes like the OEM ones. So do they just hang by the primary downpipes and the cat back exhaust? Doesn’t that add stress to the system in terms of the vband to the primary downpipes?

Secondary downpipe bracket is on the bottom part.

I can't say for VRSF, but Evolution Racewerks and Keller do have them.

I know for a fact that VRSF for M550/M850 doesn't have a bracket at all. They deleted 3 mounting brackets.
Top, middle, and bottom. So it only held on to the turbo and midpipe.

I just ordered the Evolution Raceworks secondary’s from RG Sport. ER seem to be the most talked about, others are amazing Iam sure but for their prices it seems excessive. In the end they all achieve the same sound and result, unrestricted flow.

For cat back I got the AWE switch path. Save some money and just do the track version
