The smell (literally) of bad things to come?
Hey all,
I have a 2.7T with GIAC, Bailey's and LLtek exhaust. While on my way to work today I got on it pretty heavy (all warmed up and such) and about 1-2 minutes afterward I started getting a nasty smell through the vents. Kind of an acrid smell...not oil or antifreeze. Kind of sour. I backed off smell went away. I continued to cruise along at 70-80MPH...no problem. I got back on it heavy (peddle to floor) and within seconds the smell returned. I stopped the car and checked under the hood...no sign of the smell or smoke or anything wrong. The car has plenty of power and seems happy. Has anyone else had this happen? Any ideas?

Yeah I can't place the smell....what would your thought be if is was Sulfur? Maybe my damn allergies are getting in the way.
