How bad is the fuel smell ?

Did you do both the DP and the cat-back at the same time? I'd like to hear how the car sounds with just the cat-back.

From my perspective with a catted DP, it still smells pretty strong. Takes some getting used to that's for sure. I don't smell anything in the cabin, but as soon as you open the door it's in your face.

If this is with catted I'd imagine with catless

It's honestly not too bad. The only time I really smell it is with the windows open. Call me weird but I kind of like it

Double check installation and make sure there is no leak. Smell should not be that bad even with catless.
We sell a lot of catless DP and as long as the car is not sitting in idle for couple minutes the smell should be hardly noticeable.

Thanks for the reply. When I get my CP's installed I'm going to have the pro shop check for a leak....I'm sure it's subjective but I def notice the smell and it's pretty strong.

I would not be surprised if you find a leak and the smell issue is fixed.
good luck!

Here's a clip of an ER catted DP with MPE

Cold start and inside garage, so you get to hear what my neighbors hear

Yeah I had my Downpipe installed by IND. They know their shit there. But the smell was barely noticeable for me

Perfect sound!

Plan to put Dp also! Do you have any drone on highway? I have non-resonated center pipe with supersprint quad exhaust now. I am kinda worry about the drone on highway.

No drone as a matter of fact it's pretty quiet until you accel

Didn't mean that in an offensive away if it came across like that.

Hahaha no worries man. I know what you meant

I was just trying to make a joke out of it

bahasad · 03-14-2015, 01:05 PM

Do you feel the down pipe is worth it? Would you install it again?

I love it man. Thinking about installing it again if I don't sell it within a week. What happened was because of a combination of not having the proper tune for it and from what I read, the n20 not being able to withstand the torque
