GReddy SP2 Install Questions

I finally installed my SP2 cat-back yesterday and I must say, what an absolute PAIN those rubber hanger mounts are to remove! Anyhow, the car has a nice deep rumble throughout the entire rpm range, and never gets high-pitched or starts rattling like other cars with aftermarket exhausts. Paired with a K&N intake, my RX-8 is almost deafening at high rpm WOT.

The 30-minute install went smoothly with the exception of my blood sweat and tears trying to pry those rubber mounts off. For anyone who has the SP2 kit, I've got 2 questions..

1) What did you all do with the ground strap that normally bolts onto the rear driver side canister?

2) My kit came with 2 muffler flange gaskets - was I supposed to use both? or was this a packaging error?

1) I just cut the ground strap off.
2) I just used 1 gasket, I'm assuming the other is just a spare.
