hey guys. just installed my SP2 catback yesterday and when driving it, it smells like burnt hamburgers? thats the best i can explain it. So i asked my dad to drive it and it was blowing out a tad bit of smoke when revved. Is this normal?

And one more question. Does it "break in" and get deeper/louder? right now its as quiet as stock. I have a warpy ypipe too.

Just thought id ask.

Its sounds like stock? wow...i wouldnt think so. when i installed my orignal greddy sp i heard a growl as soon as i turned car on.
But dont worry after time it will get louder....

 

it has a slight slight rumble. the intake is defiently louder. What about the smell and smoke? is that normal? is there anything inside its burnin off?

 

Yes... Don't worry about it...
It's all brand new piping, it'll take a few days and some hard driving to get it break in good....
It'll get louder also, so don't worry

 

The smell will go away after a little driving... its just burning of any oil/grease/contaminants left on the metal from assembly/manufacturing.

I don't see how the sound will change over time?

 

i had the same smell when i installed my y-pipe. It'll go away

 

yea it takes a lil while for it to "break in." plus greddy exhausts are designed so you dont hear it inside the car. mine took at least a month before it really started to growl. now its just a really nice tuned sound. the smoke and smell will go away soon. good call on the sp2. its the best one you can buy (well in my opinion)

sweet. i just thought it was weird bc ive heard videos of SP2 and it was much deeper then mine. thanks all

 

yes its the shiet on the ypipe that burns off, give it a few days. as for sound i doubt it, but performance yes!

 

yeah, my y-pipe had a weird sound at first. for just a few days. and then it became just normal.

 

too many jokes. . . . must. . . . . . . hold..back...

 

ur so funny...

 

hehehe...warpy

 

how bout some soundclips...

 

Oh come on, the title is sp2 . . . burnt hamburgers, tell me a couple jokes didnt come to mind?!!

Glad that its not problem just routine new part smell.

 

He tried to cook some meat on the pipe?

 

hmmm, yeah it must be some jokes that only immature people get or something like that...

 

lol i really dont get it lol sp2? burnt hamburgers? oh well lol

 

Alright.. I'm in the "don't get the joke either camp'...

MDeezy - you'll have to enlighten us all...

 

Sorry my immagination got the best of me, I read SP2 and then burnt hamburgers... any joke could be made from just reading that. . .

the sp2 burnt my hamburgers. . .

sp2 exhaust smells like burnt hamburgers (which actually turned out to be the case)


nevermind. . . apparently my humor only really works on myself and a select few


No, I didnt even make the jokes but its nothing immature but the title of the thread lead me to reply with a comedic responce but I decided to hold it in.

 

haha thats some good stuff... thanks for the laugh deezy

 

no prob sean

I see he has a sense of humor!

 

i miss that smell just for the fact that i was so excited when i got my sp2

 

so that really is a normal smell??wow...

 

ok, maybe i will get an SP2. best catback out there, right? sounds best? so, where's the best price?

 

could always drive by burger king

 

well i guess...smells best too right???

now if only i could find a catback producing that "paris hilton-for men" smell...then i'd be set.

 

Why would you want your car to smell like a skank?

 

the fragrance...not HER...thats gross...i dont wanna smell like some guy's *****...

 

So you want to drive around smelling all fruity

 

its FOR MEN buddy...hehe i saw the ad at an FHM magazine.

 

I was just givin' you a hard time. I get FHM, but never notice the ads

 

i need to patient that. Good Smelling Exhuast fumes.... many flavors! haha
