3" Obx Downpipe Installed but...

[2gKeith]

We installed it bolted right on. However there is a smell and white smoke comming from the muffler. Is this normal? And how long will the smell last?

 

[hypnoticpimp]

Are you still running a cat?

 

[Apeximprt2nr]

Yes it is normal. That's just because it's new and chemicals burning off inside the downpipe. It will go away after a coupes drives if that long.

 

[97 4G63]

yeah it should go away in a couple of minutes

 

[kmoore]

Yeah it will go away... I had the same weird smell too. Although mine lasted a few days...

Did you heat wrap it? If so, that stuff sometimes smells pretty bad when it is first applied.

 

[_DeS_]

Its just the exhaust burning off your fingerprints and grease.

will this pipe fit stock o2 housing and line up with the cat back?
