Default Wierd exhaust question

So I'm starting my test pipe right now and looking at the exhaust just after the cat I see something I just don't get. WTF is this?

The 6 inch extruding pipe from the exhaust, why is it there? WTF does it do? It just makes no sense to me... Well anyhoo, more pictures to come after it's done.

weird.

It is actually a pull-up bar for the honda mechanics when the car is on their lifts. Beats paying gym prices

On a serious note, i would assume it is a resignator of some sort for emissions bullshit

Pictures of during/after install
Here's the cat at the header flange

The cat at the catback flange

Header flange close up

o2 sensor before cat

o2 sensor in cat

exhaust

letting the penetrating lube bake in

Some sheild in the cat broke loose and cut my 02 sensor in half. I replaced the front one because a ob2 scanner listed o2 sensor bay 1 as the problem. I'll replace the 2nd o2 sensor later.

70mm test pipe, keepin her turbo ready
