Hello-

does anyone know if the magnaflow catback will fit an 04 MCS? Has anyone installed it on the 04? any desgin changes?? any info would help. Thanks everyone!!

 

I dont think there has been any design changes, as far as the exhaust for the 04...

 

There was a report elsewhere about the hangers changing for 04 build MCSs. I think the orientation of the hangers changed from side/side to fore/aft. A quick search ought to do the trick...

HTH,
Jeff

 

My car is Nov 03 build 2004 . I just installed a 2002-03 borla race exhaust with no problems. Maybe hangers changes came after Nov.

I just installed an ALta Sporttone Exhaust on my 2004 MCS. I love it. very easy to install sounds great. I have an additional one for sale on ebay $650 + shipping.

Just installed the Magnaflow on my Sept build 04, no problems, sounds great.
Everybody said this was the loud setup, after my first 10 mile ride I don't think it is loud at all. I think I read that the mount changes didn't become effective untill the Jan 04 builds.

Buy one, have fun !!!!!!

 

The exhaust hanger change took place in late January of this year. If I am not mistaken I think this is build dates and not delivery dates, but I could be wrong. Hope this helps.

Cheers,

JD

 

Exhaust hangers have changed. read the post under scorpion exhausts and you will see what has been posted

 

Yes i agree, i havent been keeping up!!! I also havent worked on a "late" 04 yet, worked on a couple that were early on before the changes......

 

Thanks for all the info everyone. My born on date is sept 03 for 2004 MCS. I will go ahead with the magnaflow then. thank you everyone. Anyone have a great deal for the exhaust out there.. I have been checking with a few shops around, but they have no idea for price.. they have to order it. We'll see... Thanks again everyone!

 

You can get it off of eBay form performance peddlers for $530 shipped.

 

Thanks. I have searched ebay. He seems to have the best deal out there, that I have found so far. any other ideas?

 

If you'd consider a used one, mine is up for sale as soon as I clean it and polish the tips.

 

I've got the magnaflow on my Sept 03 build MCS. Great sound and I'm very happy with it. Glad I picked the magnaflow...definitely get it!

 

good to hear. i have been searching for the magnaflow. I need to take my cooper down to a local guy and he is looking into giving me a great deal and setting up my exhuast. the cheapest I found the magnaflow is for about $650.. we'll have to wait and see. thanks again for the info everyone
