I'm referring to both MCS and MC.

Was there any change? Has there been any changes in 06?

Thanks,

For the MC I don't think there is any change. I bought a Remus exhaust that was designed for 02-04 and it fits perfectly to my 05 MC.

The 05 MCS hangers run parallel from each other where as the older models ran perpendicular. Not sure about the MC though.

Sorry I have that backwards. The 05's run perpendicular and the older models run parallel.

The exhuast hanger changefor MCS occured during the Jan, 04 build.

So, you "can" have a 2004 car with the exact same hangers as an 06 car.
