I smell too much fuel

I just got done installing my o/r prochamber and cranked her up and i smell alot of fuel. not ALOT but enough to make me want to ask is this normal with a o/r mid pipe?? By the way its on the factory exhaust system and it sounds like BLISSSS!! not too loud but it still rumbles and has a gurgul to it. Thanks for the input ahead of time and ill try to get a sound posted soon.

Yeap. Goodluck with the headaches, stinky clothes and burning eyes.

No way around it, it's gonna give off that smell. Seems like the 4.6L always run alittle rich anyway.

RE: I smell too much fuel

You've got to understand, you've just eliminated your 2 pre-cats and your 2 cats. Of course you're going to smell fuel. It's called emissions and when you remove components that remove those contaminents, it's going to stink. And yes it will run richa dn you will burn more fuel due to that.
