Default Backfire? normal?

Well after tuning my car with hondata s200b. i noticed that the car backfire a lot, when it idling i can hear it make pop pop sound rather constantly. is this normal? i asked a few people and they say their backfire too. and more on hot days. how can i stop the back firing because it rather annoying...

My car kinda does that too. Its when I am at idle. It kinda sounds like a slight misfire. Other than that it runs fine and they are new plugs and wires too. Check your wires and plugs. Mine is an h22 turbo tuned with hondata s200b.

Thats how mine is especially if im on the highway in 4th flooring it, let off real quick to switch a lane, and get back on again fast. Every once in a while it will have a nice flame shoot out with it. Plus I have a side dump exhaust so the person im passing gets a nice lil show lol.

Thats how mine is.....

If it back fires real bad, reall loud pop i think that would mean your leaning out. but any turbo car will have a series of pops all the time, especially at idle. I love that noise.
