It is true, the 98 WS6's had a single outlet tip on the drivers side. It actually probably flowed better than the dual outlet since it is going in the muffler on one end and coming out the other, instead of splitting out into 2 tips.

Awesome deal on a WS6! Yeah, that single outlet exaust didn't look right to me on my SS, so I ditched it in favor of a Magnaflow.
