Default New exhuast question

I am somehat concerned about the fumes not being absorbed by the Cat. Is it harmful to me as a driver to potentially breath this in while at a light or using the ac/heat? Will I always have to have a window down? I certinally dont want to get sick/dizzy/headache everytime I drive...

Ive had a TP for awhile now and have never noticed anything with the top up. When I have it down I catch a whiff of the good stuff every now and then but nothing that makes me feel funny

I can never smell the fumes with the top up, with or without air blowing in the cabin. I do agree sometimes with the top down, you get a light whiff of it once in a while, but its not bad enough to give you a headache or anything. A test pipe usually smells the worse right when you put it on, but after driving it for a couple days, it gets better.

Yes, the cat will quiet it down a little bit more.

Sounds like you should just put the cat back on and lose a little hp. Doesn't sound like ya have the juevos to drive the car like it should be driven anyway. Girlyman
