I just got a custom 2.25" exhaust and magnaflow muffler installed on my car, and I noticed that it was kinda stinky when driving. like a sulphur type smell. I was told that its my cat workin overtime or something like that as a result of poor air/fuel mixture.

would an ECU reset possibly fix this ? Like what I had to do when I installd the Injed CIA.

anyone else have this prob after installing an exhaust?

any suggestions ?

Thanks.

Nope most new exhuast systems will stink for a couple of weeks. Its nothing to worry about.

I didnt think it was anything serious.

Yeah, it should go away after a while. My friend who has a Miata put on a custom cat-back Magnaflow exhaust, and I followed him home in my Protege from the muffler shop. Even with the A/C on recirculate, I was still gagging from the rotten egg smell. I thought I was gonna die or something.

Yep my car smelled sooooo bad that I thought it was me who smelled bad But really just give it some time and it will go away. Dont worry its normal.

If it happens on all new exhaust systems, it could just be the muffler lining burning off like it's supposed to.

I have a MS Sport Exhaust and my friend has a HKS...and both cars throws the same sulfur smell...

still after 3 months, still same smell but not as bad as when new
