No no no, I'm positive he meant to show us the scents that you add to your gas so your exhaust smells pretty. They have tons of "flavors", but fail to have the one I want- *working catylitic smell*, to help make that "high flow cat" line more believable when pointing at the pre-silencer to the officer...

My car stinks sometimes at stoplights, ect (that sweet rotary smell). I have RP cat & DP, RP cat-back. Not as bad as a RB full with a streetported motor though. Phew!

Tune the car.
My car doesn't smell.
My son's RX-7 doesn't smell.
My engine builders RX-7s don't smell.
My friend's RX-7 doesn't smell.
My other friend's RX-7 doesn't smell.
My first six cars had no cats. They didn't smell.
You have too much fuel going in at idle.

I think he meant that you must have a problem with your sense of smell. I dunno though. I just put my DP/MP on and ditched my cats and did not notice any difference in smell.

I noticed an increase in smell after opening up my exhaust as well. The same for the '87 base I used to have. So, let's see here, either 90% of the people on here who have noticed an increase in smell need to "tune" their cars or could it be that the minority who claim to notice no smell have the problem? Interesting..........
Rotaries smell, live with it.

An Apexi S-AFC will work just fine for tuning at idle.
No special skill needed for either system for tuning at idle.
Cars with no cats do not have to be offensive.
