I dont know about you, but I can't stand the exhaust smell/fumes that come out of cars that run without cats. I dont mind if its another car, but when its my car and I'm driving it, I just cant stand it...Dont you guys get light headed when stopped at a light or stuck in traffic?!??! (end rant ![[Embarrassed]](redface.gif) )

When I have my cutout closed on the GXP and it exits thru the mufflers the exhaust fume stench seems to reach inside the car that much more. Its surprisingly a lot less inside the car when the cutout is open. I don't mnd it much though

I'm running full pipes but yes, i think my car is running a bit rich. hopefully after the tune it gets better
I'd hate to see this one sit 99% of the time like my old SF Giants coupe because I cant stand driving it... ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

If your car is in good tune, you don't have any exhaust leaks, and you have tailpipes, you should not be able to tell a difference.

I dont smell anything with my setup, I would imagine turn downs would be a lot worse.
