next time you smell the burning smell look at your tempurture gage and see if it is running hot

did you look at your motor for any oil on it

are you doing it for long periods of time, it could be your tranny.

but anyways, if you push your car, it will have some sort of smell to it but it could be serious so get it checked out

That depends on how fast you are going. Have you reset the ECU since you put on the CAI? Have you checked to make sure you don't have a cracked exhaust manifold or a gasket that is leaking?
