Use the 'recycled air' button (should be next to A/C and has a orange instead of green backlight) on your climate control. I had a vented catch can and I couldn't go without having that on. My new can is sealed though so I should be straight. Probably catchcan.

You can slightly smell it in my car when the vents are on fresh air, but it's not so bad where you smell like it when you leave the car. It's probably coming from my valve cover breather but it's not strong enough for me to care.

Re: do you smell like exhaust?

how many of you have your boosted cars as your DD? i was messing around with it tonight and i found another water leak...i swear if it isnt one thing its 10 it looks like just an intake manifold gasket...maybe i can tighten it up or something its one of those shitty exhaust manifold gasket type gaskets. ive had tags on it for 3 weeks and have only drove it maybe a total of 10 hrs IF that...but i guess thats what i get for not buying an SRT 4 huh? hopefuly ill have a post up with a few pics of it tonight

Buy silicone gasket sealant. Yes, they aren't the most reliable cars/set-ups. Do things right and careful then it will be a decent ride. Mine is a DD.
