cats with no smell.

Are there any aftermarket cats that have 0 smell???
This is a yes or no question. I have searched about this and came up with 0 answer?
If there is a high-flow or resonated pipes that are don't smell like A$$, please list them here.

More flow, more smell.

I don't think the smell would really bother you with HFC. Test pipes in the other hand, resonated or not, will always have the obvious smell.

I haven't noticed any smell at idle from the G35's I've been around that have HFC.

The main thing that i am worried about is not to get popped for them. So HFC will not smell when the LAW is behind u?
Anyone with HFC chime in.

I actually like the smell. it went away after I went turbo....turbonetics do not need test pipes....goes into a single pipe.

Actually i think 93 octane beats the smell of 91 and hazelnut coffee is better

The purpose of getting CATS to begin with is to burn the noxious gasses - the ones you don't want t smell. The aftermarket CATS actually are more efficient than the stock ones at doing this. They get hotter and are designed to give you the same results, but with performance as the leading factor.

Many have been able to pass sniff tests with them as well, but wont usually pass visual. In Cali - you definitely don't want testpipes - it's a dead give away.

And yes - Fast Intentions has a GREAT sale going on now - not a 'good one'

I have FI 300 Cell Metallic HFCs.

They do smell, but only on a cold start. After a couple mins of warming up, I don't smell anything.
