Issues with Exhast pipe hitting Differential?

I have the 09 hatch, with a Tsudo exhaust. Does anyone else have this issue where the exhaust moves and rubs the diff when decelerating?

I had this happen, but i just cut the pipe and welded it on at a new angle so it didnt hit anything. muffler shop should be able to move the pipe sufficiently so it doesn't hit anymore

i have the invidia n1, and haven't had that problem with mine. i agree with silverbullet, maybe some kartboy hangers will fix the issue?
