What's up everyone. I installed my Magnaflow Catback on my Mustang yesterday. When I went out last night, I smelt a kind of burning smell. Now I checked to make sure that I had clearance all around. Is this a normal smell for a new cat back system or did I screw up? Please help ASAP. Thanks.

This is a perfectly normal smell. The smell is all the **** like oil and stuff from manufacturing burning off the exhaust. If it continues for more than a few days, then I would get concerned.
