The smell you describe is most likely the Cats.........But @25K that shouldn't be.

That's weird at only 25K miles..

but since you mentioned upgrading to the SLP X-Pipe, you might wanna get the SLP X-Pipe with high-flow cats.. I think most people are suprised how crappy an o/r Loudmouth setup sounds.
