Is it normal to have a "burn off" period for a new exhaust? I just installed a FlowMaster and Im getting a strong odor of exhaust burn off... Im just curious if its normal or if theres a problem? I didnt have any fumes from the original exhaust and I got the truck with 2 miles on it.

 

Could be the residue(oil/fluid) from the bending or cleaning process.
I am considering a Magna-flow cat-back dual exhaust system.

 

The smell is normal. It will go away after a few weeks.

 

I put a Magnaflow cat back kit on my 06 screw FX4 and had the same smell. It went away in about a week.

 

yes i just installed the flowmaster catback it is normal to smell that it is the oils on the metal burning off the more u drive it the quicker it will go away.

 

nothing to worry about, it happens, after a few weeks it will stop
