No it's not something I ate either.

I have had my TRD Axleback on for about 600 miles now and it still smells really wierd. It smells, well like a what a new exhaust smells like but that's usually supposed to go away after a small amount of time.

Any suggestions?

 

I think its just the clean running engine. You just might not be use to how clean exhaust smells I do not condone snorting exhaust fumes, so do so at your own risk

 

If it's rotten egg odor, it's just the converter doing its job.
Sometimes a change in fuel brand might help. Otherwise the metal is sort of curing from the heat of the exhaust.

 

Thanks guys. I guess the 180 miles I drove today didn't help it smell any better either. At least it's not something serious.

 

well i have the trd exhust as well and i did have that smell your talking about smells like burning metal yes it will go away

some times that smell comes back after i drive my car a little too hard its just normal

i say give it about 5k miles or a little more/less for it to go away

 

When you put a new exhaust on it will smell, nothing to worry about Enjoy! and close the windows.
