has anyone heard their car backfire? i was coming home from work last nigh, racing an SE-R,and slowing down from 70mph-60mph i downshifted from 4-3rd and heard a loud POP sound coming from the back of the car,there were no potholes, rims are fine, and break lines still good so im guessing since i power shifted it must've backfired but wat am askin is is this badformy engine/tranny???any info will help. thnx

 

Power shifting is horrible for the tranny why even do it !

 

had to jam on the brakes and put that LSD to work.

 

Hmmmm !

 

witht he skunk 2 i get slight backfiring... but a mean backfire.. not like a heap of crap backfire.

?????????? :\

A limited slip differential aids in traction when accelerating/cornering ... maybe you're confusing the LSD with ABS or EBD?

You powershifted from 4-3rd or you power-shifted while racing(prior to the downshift) ... ??? And powershifting wont really have any SERIOUS effects on the engine / trans provided you do it right... which is doubtful in this situation. Your clutch will be the first victim if you are shifting incorrectly... followed by the engine/trans suffering.

 

I real mans backfire eh? :::grunts::: Not that sissy putt putt crap!

 

i meant i had 2 downshift in order to gun it through the curve.....

no what you meant is your drive your brand new car like an *** and in a month you will have a thread in this section of honda-tech that looks like this:

"RIP: Daniel06SI's 06 SI "

 

happened some times one track during decel/braking

 

how did you slamming on the brakes put the LSD to work? and how did you power shift from 4th to 3rd?

 

i had a backfire going pretty slow actually i was taking off a light and i tapped the gas twice the second time i heard a loud bang from the exhaust...someone on here told me it was normal that our cars run rich....btw daniel did u pay that ticket yet or are u goin 2 court 4 it?

What car do you have.

 

backfire is not bad at all...............my cousins SRT4 backfires like crazy hahahah like everytime hes drives it

 

The cars that are backfiring do they have aftermarket exhausts...
sometimes a backfire is caused by little wholes in the exhaust(imperfections in the weld)and it sucks oxygen in and creates a backfire.

 

My car makes a lovely array of loud pops when briefly hitting the 5500rpm rev limiter @ 3psi boost.

Sounded ******* sick!

I normally don't just rev at a standstill, but I was testing my new boost gauge and couldn't drive the car because of the weather
