yes, I believe my BVSV was also damaged when this thing had its front end damage somewhere back in its past. I researched what it does and I dont think having it hooked up the way I do adversely affects performance, so it stays for now.

Since I made this for someone to hear the exhaust note I thought I would post it here in my build thread cause I thought it was kinda cool!
