Running Rich......
I do understand with no cats it will run rich but how rich should it be? It seems its too rich to me. As soon as i crank it i can smell it, some while driving and especially at a red light or slow speeds.. just seems too damn smelly. Ive read and been told that the S/C will melt the cats if i add them. Thoughts??

The only way to know how rich you are running is with a wideband. You can run cats on a supercharged setup, but the tune needs to be pretty good. Without the cats you will get more exhaust smell, I don't think there is any way around that.
