It's just that Amul drives too slow.

The exhaust gases stay with the cockpit. I've told him over and over to step on the gas and he won't smell the exhaust

...the lower pressure in the cabin at higher speeds facilitates the exhaust fume evacuation. <---You have to talk to engineers like this so they understand.

As long as he never stops at red lights he should be okay then.

Smell is the sense that is most associated with bringing back memories. The smell of a cat-less exhaust instantly brings me back to the Dragon, track days, and summer mornings running after cones. Of course, the fumes probably kill off brain cells too, so some other memories is probab...ly...gone..then.....wut waz I b sayin?

too! The sound is much more aggressive with the TP. I think even deceleration is more fun with the TP...you hear so much more.

I'll put in a vote for "not that bad" on the Stink-O-Meter.

Thanks guys for the push to a test pipe.

I like bunnies , and want to keep the few brain cells that still remain.

In all seriousness, I love the way it sounds. I'm not feeling the whole smell and sound experince every time I drive top down .

Hear me , not smell me

Driving fast top down had never been so addicting as now. I got into work 5 minutes faster and had to stop and think about how reckless my drive in to work was in the parking lot.
