Drivetrain Bad Smell
Bad Smell
Just lately I have noticed a Rotten Egg smell during WOT. Could this be either
A) Bad Gas, Here in Minnesota 92 Octane is the best I can get.
B) A bad O2 sensor...
C) Bad MAP Sensors... All warning lights are on (ABS, DCS, and one other I can't remember right now)
I have recently put on a new P&P head but still waiting on my uni-chip so no software upgrade yet. I also have a 15% pulley, Cat-Back, CAI,
Any help will be appreciated.

A smell inside the car when driving is very suspect and dangerous as well. If you smell exhaust inside the car when driving there is a good chance of a leak around the hatch weatherstrip. Exhaust cannot normally enter the car further forward unless there is a leak in the pipes themselves. Also, the old rotten egg smell is rare these days unless the cat is bad or improper/bad fuel is used or things are running terribly rich.
Since you have various warning lights on, I'd tend to consider the latter above.
