Question about exhaust
Hey y'all. I tried to search for an answer or for a thread to post this in to no avail. I hate to post a thread for just a question but here goes nothing.
So recently I had a Ultimate Racing catback installed (I should have done it myself but didn't have the means at the time). It has no resonator or mini-muffler, I know, I'm brave. So I had two vibrant two-bolt 3 inch gaskets. When the guy installed the exhaust, he only used one saying the stock gasket would work fine to bolt the midpipe to the cat. Every now and then I get a gasoline-esque smell in the car. I know she runs rich because the ur is more free flowing and I have no tune, but still I'm concerned.
My questions:
1. Is my car going to explode?
2. Will I probably have an exhaust leak?
3. Am I doing damage to the car by using the stock gasket?
4. Is my car going to explode?
Forgive my noobiness and try not to flame too hard. If there is already a thread I should post this in please let me know
Any and all help appreciated

1. Yes jump out now!!! But No. Your Fine.
2. Possibly, but best way to know is put the car on jackstands and with it COLD, turn it on and feel around the connectors to see if there's a leak.
3. No.
4. Refer to Number 1.
Lastly...
5. Take the Exhaust off, Meet in somewhere near the 91, and trade me for my Custom Twin Vibrant Exhaust and be Worry Free. Find me at MOD2012 This Saturday.
