HFC's don't smell too bad. It does stink a bit at start-up as the cat's haven't reached operating temperature yet. After it's warm, it has just a slight odor. If you plan on attending one of the meets in NJ during the spring/summer you can check it out. I try to go to at least a few of them (mostly organized by 350z guys). Keep an eye out in the regional section.

Will do. The smell doesn't bother me. Reminds me of my WRX that was completely cat-less. It spews a ton go exhaust gases though. WIth all my modded cars I never had issues with cops in terms of emissions and busting my balls. I got a lot more $hit for not having a front license plate.
