Screamer sending exhaust fumes into the cabin

[dan106]

Does anyone else get this?

When driving with enthusiasm the cabin absolutely stinks like exhaust fumes

wondering if it's common with a screamer or not

[iamlegend]

had couple screamer pipes with no smell in cabin at all but recently had my ibiza with turbo back but not screamer etc but same prince able and it was the seal on the decat caused it to stink of fuel.. when sold up put the stock cat back on and no smell so yeah the seal was poor on the decat.. check that also you used a new gasket and sealant ?

[Maxep]

Yep, I also get that smell when I'm on boost with a screamer. But it goes away rather quickly

[starletezy]

Yeah I get the same smells nice haha

Embrace the fumes haha

[Maxep]

Guess that's why I always arrive fuzzy to work.

[dan106]

So it's normal? That's pretty stupid, I got light headed and had a headache the whole of the next day, looks like I'll be making my own screamer pipe then because carbon monoxide poisoning isn't exactly funny

I don't get fumes in my cab and haven't with any set up I've ran

[starletezy]

Really depends what way the screamer pipe is facing and what way the wind blows it when your driving lol

Open or window or buy a newer car without a decat

[starletezy]

Or don't decat it at all and leave it stock haha

[dan106]

Yeah cause the decat affects the screamer pipe

Fair point lol

[Ollieh17]

Get the same smell from a decatted exhaust especially one that may leak slightly. So how do you think the people behind you feel when sat in traffic if you cant bear your own screamer while moving?

[Patches]

I get the same thing man its brutal, probably not helped with the gaps on the bulkhead

[daniel_g]

Ive actually seen people in the rear view mirror hold their nose in cars behind mine haha

Bit if burning 5w40 and v power killing all the polar bears

Thug life haha

[dan106]

Yeah because sitting behind my car in a separate car is as bad as the screamer coming in my cabin ahahaha

Thinking about routing the screamer somewhere but with the rad hoses where can it go? I drive it fast too much to 'just open a window' I had the window open when it made my light headed lol!
