Default No Cats smell and louder cruising sound...

Hey all got another question for ya haha after reading a post about a better explanation on the laws about cats or no cats in Cali and how its a fix it iff its a aftermarket and only bad if you mess with the stock ones that's when you get in some deep fines and stuff but another thing that I am worried about is the smell how often does it get into the car? Because I hate it and if it does it to much I probably will have to take it off...so just looking for an answer on all that everything seems to pint to a catted h though and mrt has the only one I know of that works with the stock headers at least.... I love my stingers but I want to keep there sound going a bit longer... I just want them a bit louder when cruising basically... Anyway thanks all wrote this on a crackberry and I have fat fingers so bear with me on the spelling and grammar haha

Periods are your friend, and what I am getting after reading this confusing post is that you want to know if it will smell with no cats? The answer is yes. Maybe get an o/r H and some high flow cats to make it a bit louder.

agreed!!

and sometimes you will encounter more smell and sometimes not. I noticed more with my pypes o/r h pipe than stock. However, once i put my LTs and o/r h pipe it was more like stock.

yes an o/r pipe will be much louder than just the new stingers to answer your second question

I have these cats on my car http://www.lastcallracing.com/mpe-59956.html
I had them welded into my O/R prochamber, so now it's technically not an O/R prochamber anymore. They eliminated the smell and retained the sound. In fact it sounds a little better now. It reduced the trumpeting by more than 1/2. Volume is the same.

First time I drove around with no cats, I went to Sonic and the lady 3 spots down from me asked me to shut off my car because it smelled so bad.

May be dumb question but why would no cats make it smell? Cars were around for decades without them and didnt smell.
