After taking it back and showing Figure 27 on Page 34 then having them grind that piece off to get air flowing to the outer tips of the exhaust, the unit sounds amazing and I am so happy of the upgrade.
Thanks again!
Check 00:47-00:48 of the video below (removal of the welded blocking plate of/off the connecting pipe):


But beware: by grinding off the welded blocking plate you void the EC Type approval:
