03 JCW exhaust on 06?

Hello All -

Found a killer deal on an 03 JCW exhaust system from an 03 MCS. I know there were some changes between the 03-04 JCW kit and the 05-06 JCW kit but I thought they were in the airbox. Will the 03 exhaust fit my 06?

There are differences in the hangers between the pre-7/04 MCS and the later R53 models. I think they only affect the rear hangers but with a little work from a good muffler shop, it should be OK.

Eh I'll skip it then. I already have a one-ball, just looking for a quick bolt-in if the price was right. Thanks!

It should be a very low cost modification at almost any muffler shop to change the hangers

Well my roommate is an ex-weldor/fabricator but honestly I'm not looking to trouble anyone or go beyond an hour or two install. Not worth it IMO. It was on craigslist - used.
