I'm just wondering if the exhaust will have a different sound. It's got a flowmaster catback on right now.

If you are referring to that odd, putrid smell, then yes it will have that as well since you will not have any cats.

if by muscle car smell, you mean the smell of burnt turbo blue (leaded 110 i believe), not quite. however it will have a noticeable smell thats at least somewhat similar.

HAHAHAHA!!

WHAAT!?!?! That is what you'll be saying.

And as for smell, there might be a pungent gross smell as the grease from your hands burns off and then for a few days there is a smell of the ceramic coating curing. It smells bad if you use your heater.

So far as exhaust, it smells like an old car I guess...

Yeah, I noticed the smell a lot more when I first did my header install. If I walk around the back of my car now I notice it, but it isn't bad. If anything it makes you smile because you know you have the headers.
