Ok I had dumps on my car before I got an offroad H pipe and headers and the smell never bothered me, but now that I have that stuff on my car, the smell inside the car is horrible..like I dont even like driving my car to school anymore cuz my clothes smell like exhuast afterwards and i feel like im breating in exhuast the whole way there...the smell in the car got a lot worse, im getting tailpipes on friday, however I was just wondering if anyone experiences this with dumps

I hate dumps, and not cus of the smell. I dumped my exhaust and liked it for maybe 3 days. But I hate it now cus it doesn't even sound like a Mustang anymore, and it's not even louder than it was. It's actually quieter now when cruising. I hate the sound, it sounds like a MACK truck or something. Way to deep. But the smell isn't bad at all. Just the crappy sound, not to mention I think my turn-downs are knocking against my axle anytime I hit a bump. I'm putting tailpipes back on as soon as I can.
