Which subframe connectors for aftermarket exhaust?

I have a 3" hooker exhaust from the headers to the tailpipes not yet installed, are there any subframe connectors that my aftermarket exhaust will not work with? Also I'd like to install these soon and install the exhaust later in the summer or fall, would this be a bad idea in case the exhaust doesn't fit around the connectors after all?

The Alston SFC fit a 3" Intermediate pipe fine. They actually help to protect the I-pipe from damage from parking lot speed bumps.
