Default Turbo guys with no cats

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you running cats have real rich smelling exaust? Since the new turbo with no cats my eaust smells rich as hell. I threw a ses light twice on sat. fuel trim rich bank 1 and bank 2. You think my tune is dumping too much fuel?? Waiting for my wideband to come so I can figure out whats going on.

Mine smells rich, but if you are getting an ses light you need to get the wide band on it and probably adjust the tune.

Mine smells a little funkier with out the cats but not really rich. If you ever make it up this way, I have HPT and a WB, could get some logs for Nelson.

Yeah, a funky smell is 'normal' I'd say. Looks like Rick's got you hooked up anyway!! That's awesome customer service!

i love the smell of a catless set up. brings back memorys of when i was a kid and there were no cats. old school hotrod smell.

your tune could be off too but there is definatly a smell from the exhaust without the cats even when tuned properly.
