Default Exhaust Fumes?!?!?!

Alright, I didnt know what section this falls under so I just thought I'd start here.

My question is regarding excessive exhaust fumes. Ever since I got my new exhaust on, (apexi WS) my car freakin stinks up everything. I have to drive with both windows down, cause it really smells inside the car, so much so that in a 10-15min ride the smell gets on your clothes.

Also when I'm backing up into the driveway the smell goes into my house from the front door.

Now that being said, its a built LSV, and just recently found out I need a new cat, as per mine is still physically there but theres no insides left.


So is this normal? Really I dont care about the bad smell outside the car but its really bad inside and I fear for my brain cells, as I think I kill several a minute.

Also, make certain your exhaust is sealed properly to the rear end of the cat.
