Bad enough that I figured no chick would ever want to ride in the car a second time.

I hate following people with test pipes. Last time there were a few (i think 4) and when they took off, it smelled like exhaust fumes and ass for miles and miles down the road. i felt bad for other motorists that were trying to enjoy a peaceful night cruise.

it annoys me when people use inproper terms.
a backfire is when the combustion comes back out the intake.
please dont call flames out the tailpipe a "backfire".

also, afterburn on a catless car is the same thing as afterburners on jets.

The smell on mine (Berk) is a rich fuel smell, nothing like rotten eggs. It's mainly noticeable when the engine is cold, I never smell it while in the car - moving or stopped - top down or top up. From the complaints at WTD, it's more noticeable to the cars behind you. I am still contemplating whether to keep it on or not, I have mixed feelings on TP's.

I have the Megan and I don't smell it while in the car either. Not sure if anyone smells it from behind me. If it does then it has the added benefit of discouraging people from tailgating me in traffic
