Flowmasters don't have any packing on the inside like a Magnaflow does. The exhaust shop may have put some hi-temp paint on over their welds to prevent rust, but that shouldn't smell for 3 weeks... if at all.

Two questions for you Flowmaster fellas . . .

1.) How is the interior noise in the Liberty? Particularly in the back seat. Any droning?

2.) How much fabrication was required to install? I would be getting installed at a Midas, what should I anticipate in terms of installation cost?

Well for me, there is a bit of drone inside, I've never ridden in the back of my KJ though. But after I put the lift and MTs on I can't hear the drone at all. I can still hear it growl though. I love it. I have the Super 44 Off Road Flowmaster btw.

no drone at all in mine... and mine did stink for a little while... as far as fab, if you want to go the cheap way and no welds, less that 20 bucks at auto zone for parts.. 3 clamps and a section of pipe

if you just want it put in with clamps prolly 70 but if you want a tip too it will prolly run around 100
