Hello,

I am new to Z world, and i like to know if it is normal to have a heavy burning smell after installing a new CBE?

I recently install my new Invidia Gemini CBE and after turning off the car coming from test drive on the same day of installing, i notice a strong burning smell and smoke coming off the exhaust tips, its like the smell of a burned matchstick.

Sorry in advance if this is a repeat post, but I tried searching and didn't find the answer.

Thank you
