Default car is backfiring at like 6000 rpms... but not always

i dont know what the deal is.

running:

12:1 fmu, stock injectors, inline pump, walbro 255.

@ 9psi, at about 6000 rpms, it back fires sometimes in 3rd or 4th gear... i have no clue why. Its usually only when i downshift it and punch it on the freeway.

Take care

i also do not believe my o2 sensor is working properly... the backfiring is kind of a hesitation / backfiring deal its weird.

Too much fuel.

You are running too rich and the excess fuel is igniting in the exhaust manifold. Try a 10:1 FMU.
