Do you have the Borla exhaust w/ the straight thru pipe? Mine stunk like skunk ****
until I put the plate in that diverted the flow thru the muffler instead of a straight pipe and the smell stopped.

'99 w/ 110K...I bet it is the cats. Who cares what it smells like behind you. I ditched my cats completely and all I smell is normal exhaust/a little bit of fuel. I don't understand the rotten eggs smell. I run LT's to ORY to catback and don't smell anything. Is this a clogged cat smell or something where the catalyst is getting really hot and breaking down and smelling?

I have hooker lt's, ORY, and nothing but a crapmaster muff on the back.
I can smell fuel burning on my car (depeding on wind direction) If i'm sitting still, and no wind i can't smell it. If i back the car up from a stop i can smell it.
It's just the lack of a cat.
I think it's a great smell. I dont mind it at all =)
