Stink smell at hard acceleration
Flame suit on.. i swear i did a search and nothing came back that helped..
If i run my car hard particular in 4th and 5th gear and my AC is on.. the car's inside is engulfed with a pungent smell of like .. i dont know what.. does not smell like oil though..
got the car tuned by AMS two months ago for 90 oct tune and i am pretty sure Chris left the car pretty rich on top the rpm range for safety reasons. Do you think its the rich AFR causing this because i do recall it happening with the stock tune??

Could be the clutch or brake pads if your braking after hard acceleration, it could also be the cats or a myriad of other things! If it was the clutch slipping I think he would notice??? If it is the clutch the smell is similar to a rotting corpse lol, I've heard horror stories about burnt clutches!
