Did you just wrap it around the male portion of the chamber?

My PFP came with an extra coupler guessing its for the exhaust outlet tube for a splice I guess. Only thing I can figure

Sorry, made a flat washer type for my RRP pipe.
My PFP broke the outer aluminum off the outer edge of the O-ring groove, so I bought a silicone hose that slipped over the smaller inside pipe, and trimmed the outside of it until it just slipped into the manifold, worked very good and sold it with that pipe eventually. Before that it would eat couplers for lunch, never blew a coupler again!

Well imadumbass, I forgot the big washer that goes behind the Bendix, so maybe that was actually where the noise was coming from, so now I nerd to decide if I should put the ski back together and test or continue with a b-pipe trade...

Why would you not run the washer? It is there for a reason.

ok, put it all together today again, kenny keepers apear to clear everything, motor is lined up, 4mm gap on the coupler, PFP is aligned, bendix has all washers and spring, when I had it apart I saw absolutely no apparent spots where the pipe would be rubbing and causing noise or damage. I put it all back together today and the noise is still there. It is really only noticable around maybe 3,000rpm. Here is a quick video, you can really hear it around 12 and 19 seconds. What do you think?

That is a rotational vibration. Not the pipe. Did you find any marks on the pipe?

but it could be the bendix vibrating inside the flywheel compartment.

OK, I'll run it, if it is the Bendix, worst case it goes and I need a new flywheel and stator, no biggie.

Nope, I assume it'd the Bendix. I can't see it really causing any issues so I gave up lol

does it rattle at low rpm, then goes away when you hit the throttle a little bit?

Like 1/8 throttle is when it happens, anything after or before you can't hear it.

I recently replaced my front cover bushing and used a brand new oem spring with the 2 washers in front cover, along with the washer in the back of the bendix, and my ski still makes that noise too. I think it's still hitting the kenney keepers even though I grinded them out to clear the bolts. That motor moves like crazy. I took a video like that and it looks so funny when the cam just shows it wiggling around out of sync
