catalytic convertor
Hey all,
I got my bassani high flow y pipe the other day. I was looking at it, and noticed that there wasnt anything coming out of the cat. Shouldnt there be some sort of air tube or something?? I dont know much about them, but I thought they needed air to help the combustion along. Any ideas?

OK...thats what I thought. Could this have been made wrong? Anybody else have a Bassani High Flow Y Pipe?? It looked strange when I saw the cat, and nothing else. I plan on contacting bassani this afternoon, and can hopefully get an answer in a few days.
