What answer are you looking for?
Yes steeda did a cam tune for me with cats that was pretty decent. I had cat deletes and it made my exhaust sound like crap plus increased fumes whereas my wife asked me if I spilled gas on myself. But I didnt think it wasn't that bad lol..

I don't run cats and the fumes aren't bad at all. You can smell it.. But it's no horrible.

Just carry an extra bottle of cologne in your car. Lol

Removing cats from any car, yeah, you will get gas fumes... Some cars I feel are worse than others, but yes, you will get them one way or the other. Gotta pay to play!

It's worth it to look your kids in the eye and tell them you're running catless.

If you bitch about the fumes, your a sissy. They are not bad provided your not sitting in the garage with the car running. I cant even smell mine at a light or in a parking lot.

i never really noticed the fumes till today. i let the car run while i got gas, the wife was cold and wanted to run the heater.
i cought the fumes in my face pretty good.
ive had my catless x pipe and tune all last summer. cruising with the windows down and really couldnt notice a fume issue.

there are some fumes sure , but once you've driven a pushrod motor with around [email protected] and a bunch of overlap through dumped mufflers the fumes from a coyote smell like your Mom cooking bacon on Sunday morning....mmmmmm!

Exhaust is one of the best smells in the world! I just put my ORX on Friday night and I love it! Fumes aren't so bad that I smell them at a light or anything, but they're there. Just smells like an old car

I had cat deletes for about a month before tiring of the stinky fumes, I dealt with it for years on my old supercharged Fox Saleen, figured Id give it a try on the Coyote and lemme tell ya, these things seem to be really be dirty burning.......but I kind of think the winter blend gas has a lot to do with it
