Default APS Tesp Pipes Intsalled - Now Blue Smoke and Odor

Just had my APS Test Pipes installed, so I'm now running the compete APS TT kit. However, when I rev it now I get blue smoke and the exhaust emits an odor. Could this be caused by the removal of the cats or is this the infamous smoke that some people get from the APS TT kit? What do you guyts think?

at least the odor is.

You're going to see all sorts of crap coming out your exhaust with test pipes - smoke, flames, smell, etc

Never had any blue smoke, may be some crap that is sat in your test pipes that is just burning off.

i got that smell like the first 3 weeks i ran em, jus because u replaced the cats, the smell will go away, but everything else does come out of your exhaust now tho, smoke, flames, and other little goodies!

Yeah, when you shift you will see smoke, and possibly flames depending on how rich you are running.

I don't have the TT kit but I am running the APS TP. There is and odor from my exhaust. I could almost bet it cause your are running rich and the heat of the exhaust is burning the extra fuel. Have you tuned your kit yet? If so you will most likely need to tune again for the TP.
