Also I notice that my gauge that displays how much mileage is left until I need to refill changed dramatically. Mileage dropped, not sure why either.
Update: Tony confirmed that the smell is normal. I also did a reset and the mileage gauge is back to normal.

That smell is definitely normal. At first, it was a little overbearing to me, but it's not that noticeable after a while. It will become normal. I'm pretty sure that Tony says the upcoming exhaust is possibly going to eliminate the strong smell and rasp. (Correct me if I'm wrong, Tony.)
Try not to worry about the smell. It lets everyone behind you know what's up.
