Maybe so. Mine are 2000GT and 2002GTP and they both had the U section.

You know if you're up to the challenge you can weld a Magnaflow in there (since you don't have a u-bend). It's fairly easy.
I did one of catalytic convertors on my Mirage (it has 2)...cut old cat out with a Sawsall and loosened the bolts. There was enough play in the exhaust to wiggle the new cat in place and tightened the bolts back up. After three spot welds I dropped the entire pipe and welded it the rest of the way on the bench. My cheap flux-core welder worked real well.
