hey guys, hows the smell emitted from a test pipe? i heard that it smells a lot like gas fumes. is that true? if so, how bad is it? can you smell it from inside the cabin if youre just idling? im interested in getting rid of the drone in my cabin, i HATE that!

 

Thanks for the answers all I think I'm getting an Invidia 70mm TP to match up to my SKunk2 dual!

I need silencers The exhaust noise is too much. I don't understand how ol'farts can deal with this noise better than a young fella like me :S Lol! No offense you oldies!

 

If anyone have some silencers for sale let me know!!

 

I only ever smell anything when i first start the car up in a confined space - as soon as you're moving or in the big outdoors i doubt you could smell it. Plus i quite like the smell - kinda like cookies baked on an open fire that someone used a lot of petrol to start.
It also 'moves' the sound backwards through the car a little, so it's quieter in the cabin, and noisier out the back. I have a HKS, so no real drone in the first place, but definitely none now.

 

Is there a test pipe that has a CEL fix included or integrated onto the test pipe? If I wanted to get a TP that would give me the least headache in regards to throwing CEL's, which one would I go for? I have a stock exhaust.

 

whats confusing lol its a pipe and nothing more just extend the bung so u dont get a CEL

 

The Berk test pipe has the cel fix attached to it. Can also just buy a fouler for like 10 bucks if you wanted to go with a different test pipe.

To another question, The smell is really not that bad. Some people get bothered by it, but personally I kinda like it and it does not bother me in any way. When moving I don't smell it, but when at a stop with the top down you can definitely smell plenty of fume smell. Top up I can smell it a little when at a stop but not too much.
