Need Help -- Burnt oil smell after braking

[CaRtharsis]

Hi, I've been noticing for awhile that after spirited braking there would be a very distinct burnt oil smell. It isn't apparent during any other driving conditions, only after moderate to hard braking.

Has anyone experienced this or have any theories as to what could possibly be causing it?

Car is an '04 6 spd, upgraded injectors running a Chris Tapp tune and TT DV. Otherwise stock.

Change your valve cover gasket.

Teh oil accumulates at one spot and when you brake aggressively drops off onto the hot car causing the smell.

Common and cheap problem to fix.

Thanks! I'm just about due for timing belt so I may as well get it all done at once.

It could be the brakes, they will tend to smell after hard braking.

I had thought that originally as well. However I run the same Hawk HPS pads on 2 of my other cars, one of which see's considerably harder braking work during Solo with no smell at all.
