Just a strange little thing I have noticed after driving the car since monday when I got it back from the shop. The "I just drove by a burning gas leak" smell is now gone. It started when I put the off road x-pipe on, I know this is normal, but why did it go away now? I'm not complaining by any means, just curious.

The oil that they use to keep the pipes from rusting and stuff while in storage has just worn off no biggy.

I think all the hand prints and grease from installation just takes a while to burn off, my headers did the same thing.
