Exhaust Smells
I have a fully open exhaust with a single turbo downpipe, midpipe and catback system..
Evertime I drive my car I get out smelling like exhaust fumes. You guys with similar exhaust setups, is this normal? Would putting my cat back on eliminate the problem? I already had the car tuned with an open exhaust, so would reinstalling the cat change things drastically?
Thanks,

If your car is mapped to open exhaust it will change some when a Cat is returned to the system.
As for the smell, yes, it's kind of like working on a riding lawnmower or something, it runs rich and you smell like gas. A cat on will filter some of that out without stealing much power from you, if hardly any.

No not really he can drive around with a cat but it will not last long and will restrict HP alot. As for the smell when you get modded you get the smell.... I use mine just for track and a few drives here and there. My old lady cant stand my car....
