Default My exhaust backfires!!!!!!!!

Whenever i'm going down a hill or whatever and i let off the throttle the exhaust will back fire a lil and make popping noises. Or sometimes in between shifts it'll make a loud POP sound. Wtf!? How do i prevent this????

LMAO why would you want to prevent that? With exhaust comes the potential for backfiring!!! BACKFIRE IS GOOOOD! If you want to prevent it take off your exhaust...a car doesnt need a lot of power to backfire...ex...my sisters 99 ex, dc exhaust, headers (dc also) and some intake...it backfires. It did it better when she had her apex exhaust on but she took it off because it overwhelmed her stereo (she sucks lol) I liked it.

I have a backfire story (Also shows how little power backfire takes)

I was at nascar in the main hall behind the stands, this golfcart thing there backfired so loud it sounded like a gun (literally) you could hear people scream.

Now if that isn't power tell me what is

Also water can cause backfire...spray a little water in your exhaust MUHAHAH!

haha..My Trust catback exhaust does the exact same thing man..In between shifts it'll make a few popping noises and if i let off the throttle while in gear, it'll make sort of a gurgling noise. Don't worry about it. Theres not really much you can do to prevent it.

It's normal, don't worry about it. Now, when you're on a road course and you're redline 2nd, bounce off the rev limiter because it's not worth it to go into third, then get off the throttle, the exhaust pops like crazy, then get back on going around the turn. It's freakin cool, especially when you're next to a wall
