Header wrap stinks!!!!
so I wrapped my ypipe with header wrap yesterday and I already know that its normal for it to smoke up and smell bad for awhile but god damn it stinks
Anyways how long will this stench last? right now it stopped smoking up when I drive but I still get the smell which isnt too nice. Im going to use the rest of the wrap to do my b-pipe tommorow so here comes more smell

yup....it smelled like fresh bread. When my ypipe was sjust installed, it smelled like something else....because the antisieze was burning off.
have you checked your ypipe and make sure there is no dead aniaml on it??

how far down did you wrap the exhaust Lawrence??
because every time it gets wet its gonna smell like booty... so maybe wrap only the upper portions of the exhaust??
if you dont like the burning smell

Malik - I only did the ypipe as of now but I was thinking of doing the rest of the catback since im not worried about rusting the stock bpipe and I got like 30 more feet of wrap left. I used the brand cool-tec or something like that

I was also thinking of wrapping too but someone mentioned in the winter time, salt powder might work its way into the wrap around the lowere portion of the y-pipe & b-pipe.
So we got smells ranging from booty, pho, cookies to bread??
