Smelly?
The only 'problem' I had was a little smoke (like somethings burning inside) but that was only on the first drive. Also it has a stinky (asbestos?) smell to it. But that is slowly going away now. Otherwise, T.O.A.R. Good cracker!

Thats probably because he wouldn't make much money off an install. I'm sure if you wanted to buy the exhaust from him, MagnaFlow would be the best thing out there

Well I would like to throw my 
in for what it's worth 
! We have the magnaflow system installed and for a pre-fabed system it is pretty darn nice! My muffler guy had some comments in which were more fact based than profit induced!
Pro's:
1) Ease of installation!
2) Nice and Shiney!
Con's:
1) The over the axle pipe was very close to the gas tank and axle!
(Axle clearence is an issue on lowered vehicles)
2) Although it is of Stainless construction it is of a pretty thin gauge!
(Replaced Resonator with Straight Through Pipe)
We purchased ours on ebay for $325.00 plus $1.00 shipping
!

The money saved on the system we used for installation!
General Consensus:
You can probably have a better fitting system with matched performance fabricated at the muffller shop for less! I kinda like looking under and seeing the Shiney Stainless system stareing back at us.....
