new exhaust

alright so i have the racing beat exhaust from the headers back, and with the next week or so i will hope to have it installed on my fc. problem is, the previous owner decided to put fart cans on the thing and the exhaust is wielded into one piece. the bigger problem is that they removed the 6 port bung from the main cat, wielded it closed and removed the tubing to the actual actuators. now that I'm going to install the new exhaust i have no way to get the 6 ports to open on they're own, so my question is, what can i do to make them open like they should.

tl;dr
6 ports don't work, need some way to get them working with the new exhaust and i don't have the plumbing.

I would just go to a local junkyard and see if you can get all the parts you need. if not, there are probably some people parting out NAs in the for sale section.

the car is bone stock except the stupid fart cans but i'm not sure if the air pump still works or not. i had to go to a local junk yard and did find a few fc's but they don't have rims and are sitting on the body, so getting under them will be pretty hard. my dad said the nearest one didn't have any more fc's though and they were about to remove the fb/sa22's from there.

is there a belt if so that link i gave above is for making the 6 ports work off the air pump.

if you dont have a junkyard try here in the for sale (or post a WTB wanted to buy thread) or craigslist.com
