Default when does your scoob pop and bang?

have had the full decat system on for about a month now. also apexi cone and a forge dv. Strange how you cant seem to make those exhaust pops - they seem to be random.

mine is making several sounds a pop (as in a champagne cork sound) a bang like a small firecracker and sometimes a whoosh pop sound which might be the odd flame??

seems if i run it at a constant 3k rpm in third and then quickly downshift on the vacuum its more likely to let a pop out. wish I could record the sound

As far as I know it should happen on partial lift-off (as mentioned already) due to ecu overfuelling and unburnt fuel getting into exhust..?

mine is around 3500 rpm lift off in any gear that can cause a touch of boost

i have a uprated recirc dump valve fitted with a stronger spring preasure
97 wrx with full 3" revolution system and open neck downpipe

ive noticed that mine seams to be popping a lot more then it used to now (or have i perfected the art of making it pop when i want it to lol)

Mine pops on partial lift of especially in 2nd (usually between 3 and 5 pops) but bangs (1 or 2) when lifting of from speed - like approaching a roundabout on a duel carriageway, sometimes followed by pops shortly after if really slowing down.

all the time in every different situation. From crusing at 70 on the motorway to pottering around town. Once shes warmed up for 10mins or so its bang time. Stops me from getting tailgated

Mine isn't decatted yet, but nearly every time changing from 2nd to 3rd at 3000rpm I get a nice pop when heated up. Happens with other gear changes, but only at higher revs.
