[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8722941, member: 614752"] Not sure where people come up with this idea. Coils are not build with excess "glue" that needs to be burned off, and I can't vouch for Chinese made coils, but the American ones I use are baked at 475 for 60 minutes at the factory for the final stage of production. If your coil is getting smelly it means you're putting in too much power. This is never good for it and will shorten its life. That doesn't mean you can't do this regularly and still get an acceptable lifespan out of your sub but understand that you are reaching thermal limits when you can smell shit burning. [/QUOTE]
