My '99 stock midpipe had 4 cats, the 98's have 6. Note I have seen pictures online of '99 models with 6 cats (they may be California cars though). I think the factory midpipe was changed on the newer models also 03/04?

i guess the only way to find out whethe it will fit or not is to try and bolt it up and see what happens
