Yea i've noticed that too myself. Smells like gas off the exhaust too. I reset my ECU when I put the intake on. I also have a issue with my oil disappearing, but that has been determined to be valve seals...so probally going to run the 7a-fe til it dies, or follow Griff's advice and turbo that bastid and replace it when it goes for 400 smackers.
