Just to pass on a tip from Scuzzle...
My recently fitted Racing Beat exhaust started causing a clunking sound on hard cornering. The back box was moving due to g-forces and allowing the down pipe to occasionally rub into some under chassis gubbins. The standard Mazda rubber hangers were in great condition but they could not cope with the extra weight / forces. So I tied some large jubilee clips around the rubbers and did them up firmly (but not mega tight) so they no longer swayed about too much under load. This was an instant cheap fix.
