Backfire in the exhaust is ok.

Popping coming out of the intake is not.

its all good buddy theres nothing wrong. Its backfiring like that cause your exhaust is more open and you have no cat to burn up the extra fuel cause the car runs really rich when its cold. This happens to me everytime i leave college and im driving by pple and they allways turn to look at whats making all that noice. BTW I have a berk header and tp plus buddy club spec3 exhaust.
