if its punched out properly it shouldnt stink its only when parts of the cat still remain that it stinks
Smells like unburnt fuel. Definitely detectable.
Why would it smell like unburnt fuel? It has nothing to do with running rich.

Dunno if is a fuel smell but that smell you get when you turn your car on in the morning but it's worse and does not go away. Guess it's because the the cat isn't burning off the sh*t coming out of your exhaust.

The thing with that is the heat of it after you come off the track. You need the let it cool down for about an hour befor you can change it over.
