I would guess that the canister is a universal one, and that particular pipe is not used in this application. But hey, it would make a rotor shaped center exhaust easier to make!

Ok I give.........

Ok, Ok, Leave the guy alone.......

It is the 'other' end of the pipe that goes in.

If you look closely, you will see that the 'entry' pipe goes right thru, for mechanical strength, it sticks out the other side. No big secret, it just makes an appearance on the other side, and is capped.

My Borla don't do that, it sounds really sweet.
