im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
well here the deal. i have a 91 crx with an ls swap no exhaust leaks to my knowledge. theres no sut anywhere and i cant hear any. everytime i get out of this damn thing i stink like hell. when i get on it real hard it gets worse and sometimes just randomly it will start to smell inside the car. right now im running a screen on the intake, no valve cover hose to the intake pipe and straight out of the black box on the back. could the pcv ---- be causing all of this because its starting to get slightly old.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
Does your tip go past the bumper as not to huff into the rear skirt and into the car?

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
yea yea its a full DC sports exhaust for now. my other car did the same thing when it was turbod and i had the same pcv set up. also the canister is removed under the hood and thats about it that i can think of that will cause anything? i was thinking about puting a 90* on the black box and run the line off the valve cover and it into a T down towards the ground...?

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
you run rich. my friends rustang (seriously built, will light em up on a hard 3rd gear downshift), but he gets 12mpg at all times with a 450hp motor, and always runs rich. even doing 85-90 on the way to summit racing/phantom fireworks, we all reaked like raw exhaust. something about running rich makes things smell like that, if you don't have tailpipes PAST the rear bumper, where they can't get sucked back in.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
yea yea it goes all the way out the back its about flush with the bottom lip on the bumper. im not running extremely rich untill i get on it hard. crusing im at about 14.5-14.9 depending on temp. when i lay into it it comes down to around 10.9. right now im running a stock ls with some 450s and a 10 second base map so thats probably got something to do with it. i need to get my data logging working so i can try to kill some of the fuel out of it.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
are you running a catalytic converter? i know alot of straight pipe cars are like that.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
Who welded your exhaust? I took a car I had to a local shop a for a test pipe. When I removed it for a sidemount scotty 3" open dp, I noticed a nice (inch) sized gap between the pipes.. Where the weld should have been.. Yeah I was always smelling exhaust.
Next setup im learning to weld. |
Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
if you smell like exhaust its getting inside the car. double check that it could not really be anything else. your thinking too hard. smell like exhaust inside car = exhaust not doing its job. bottom line.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
i had the same problem. shitty base map and the exhaust that ended right before the rear lca. after putting the rest of the exhaust it went away, but still stank just not as bad. after i tuned it, the smell went away. now, its actually a pleasure to drive it again.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
i think i may have figured it out. i havent gotten a chance to test my theory though. what i came up with is the bumper is kinda flimsy i can pull it out about an inch and my tip is almost behind the lip on the bumper. so what im thinking is when im going down the road the wind is blowing my bumper out and letting it come up inside it. im going to try to reposition the rear section either tomorrow or the next day. complex was right though i can watch my wideband and when it drops into the 13's it stinks to high heaven about 4 seconds after its there. im gonna bust out the lap top tomorrow night or friday morning ebfor school and get some tuning done on it and get the exhaust pulled out some then see what happens. thanks for the help

yes jegofaggot, im looking your way. :1 |
Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
put your climate control on recirculate. I noticed when i didn't have my pcv system hooked up it would smell oily at idle, and recirculate was the answer till i got a proper catch can.

And one2many, I'll ---- you mother while I beat your ass like your daddy never did enough. You should go for a ride with random-miss when he downshifts going 90 and slides sideways off a cliff and into a nuclear reactor
and my camaro has LT y and muffler 8)

i wonder how thats possible with 3800lbs and only 450 crank hp |
Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
i read artical, says "we expect" they didn't actually have one ::)

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
Compare with an STi at 3350lbs and 293hp. They do 0-60 in mid 4's and 1/4 in 13 flat. Add 450lbs, and 150hp, plus the GT-R probably has a much flatter powerband than an STi or Evo which are known for spooling late. I'd say it's entirely possible tbh with a good hook-up.

Re: im tired if smelling like exhaust all the time
nissan v6's have been one of the smoothest engines evar in history, not to mention boosting a v6 that is 3800cc's

they claim 120mph traps on the skyline. it doesn't add up we'll wait till it comes out. the svt cobra traps 110-115mph, has about the same hp, more torque same weight |
