Crank case breather. Eliminates one of the hoses that goes to the intake.

How did you make the midpipe? I don't know how to weld so if you did that, I can't do it.

no, no welding is needed, just drill into the pipping for both hoses.

and yeah, all i did was put newspaper behind them, not totally necessary though, the brakes will scrap off any paint on the rotors..

alright kids...i gotta jet to work
