Oh man I hope so. The muffler I just bought is from an S but it's from a 2002, same as mine. That would be sweet if it was a swap.

Pelican Parts is what is having me doubt. When I went there for new fasteners and clamps I noticed they have two separate exhaust pages for the S and Base. That's where I noticed the difference.

But then again the diagram they have for the non S is showing a 2.5 headers and midpipes with cats setup. So it may be the same with the muffler in the diagram.

I guess I will find out when it arrives.
