Take it to exhaust shop, they can probably just weld some roundbar onto your ...cough... +60hp muffler, bend the bars into hangers and... that should do the trick...
The one near me has done a ton of work on all our cars, theyre very resourceful. (repaired my badly cracked up downpipe, its been fine for 2k miles!)

I have the same muffler. you have to modify the hangers a little bit. If you can weld you should be able to figure it out like I did. I took of the old muffler and cut off the hanger and fabbed it together. not hard but if you can't weld bring it to a muffler shop. Also if its a straight in style (the hole where you connect the exhaust) you'll need to bend you existing pipe a bit.
Good LUck!
