Sounds like he installed the Patriot pipes that look like Hookers. I believe you can hook one of the smaller pipes to your exhaust/headers. I know some here on CF have done before; maybe someone will chime in.

3 re blocked and 1 is open on each side. You need to have a pipe made to go from the manifolds down to the open pipes.

Those aren't Hookers. The Hooker sidepipes go all the way to the engine. The Patriots 4-1 only have one functional tube so they will really strangle the engine.
