    yeah i mean how on the variator tho?

    i can see its pipe lol, got two fuck off bits coming off it

    just a washer in the variator? or a plate like a pug?

    a little waster between the front pulley and the variator that stops them coming completely together, just take it out

    pipe isnt necisasary with piggys tbh.. leave it as is an it wont really kill off performance too badly.. to properly do the pipe you need to cut them flat and weld 2 plates over the top of where you cut, simply crimping them wont really help you out as theres still a horible step that the gas hits distrupting flow

    still wont be a pipe inside will it, so waste of time imo.. rezonator tube just cuts sound mostly.. cat keeps emmisions down, just buy a pipe second hand for it if your that botherd
