i read other posts about fixing the exhaust smell in the car (96 gts) but none of them helped me find out whats causing it. I brought it to the exhaust shop and they checked all the joints so it shouldn't be leaking. i read about trunk vents, how can i tell if those are bad??

Explaining Viper things to you
With rear exhaust I had a bad smell at WOT with the winders down. My vents at the rear looked good. I went to side exhaust and fully welded the system. My Corsa cat-back was clamped at the numerous joints. Problem solved. For me anyways...

Do you notice the smell all the time or at specific times?

No cabin vents in RT10s.

Use racer's tape and a plastic bag over the vent area on each side.

I had an exhaust smell when the windows were down so I pulled the carpets back and saw that one of the pass. vents had been knocked out when the Water/**** tank was installed. massive PIA to fix, but I got 'er stuck back to the car. Problem solved
