It definitely isnt like the fuel smell i was used to with stock minus muffler setup after a lot of WOT action.

im freaking out like i forgot to take some kinda packaging out of the pipes before I installed it or something! lol

Totally normal. It will go away after a few days of driving. There are some oils inside the pipes that burn off and some of the packing inside the mufflers is going to burn off.
