There is a period of time to burn/cure the coating off everything. But you're going to smell dirty exhaust, the reason they put cats on everything is to clean up the gasses that come out of the tail pipes. Without the catalytic converter you get no conversion of the exhaust gasses.

Pretty normal to have a smell without cats, if there was nothing wrong with the car before the LTs im sure your ok. Dont take it to a shop they will charge you some stupid amount of money and not even tell you anything.
