Rotten Egg Smell...

Everytime i go over 3000 rpm, and come to a stop, it smells really bad. What would be the cause? Before, this would only happen if I pushed the car really hard. Oh yeah, another thing, my exhaust tips are so burnt, anyone else???

are you running a straight pipe or no cat?? if not, it could also be a screwed up stock cat. thats what usually brings on the "egg smell"

I have a V2 with stock y-pipe, stock cat, and just a HKS rear section. Someone told me to change the cat too. I just ordered one, hopefully it should solve the problem.

What about the exhaust? Is it normal to have the burnt look?
