My car's in for an exhaust service this week to install ceramic thermal coated SuperSprint headers, and tweak the suppressors for more attenuation so that the car is less raucous.

The stock exhaust system weighs a ton. It's one of the few items I haven't weighed on a scale, but it isn't light.
In my Z, I only smelled the fumes whenever I was sitting at a light. Once you’re moving you don’t notice it. I may also be more sensitive to it because I sit relatively further back compared to e9x owners.
