Cool

Hi
I have just recently fitted a turbo back decatted S/S exhaust & i have noticed a slight backfire,not very loud every now and then. Is this normal if not what could it be.

Sounds to me like you're getting the normal popping on the overun, mine does it if I lift of off the gas, and then give it just a little bit, sounds great in a under bridge!!

I'll second that Ron, my SS decat centre and TSL BB (OEM DP) occasionally donates pleasure to my eardrums in the form of a fairly loud pop ! brilliant

Try running with a SS DP and BPM 3" centre and twister BB, ITG filter and atmo BOV, I can't drive anywhere with pops/bangs and flames And thats with the bung in the exhaust, take it out and I sometimes think there's a war going on at the back of my car
