shooting form the exhaust

[sickboy2345]

hi all


yeah as above...is it normal? i mean when i slow down(lets say doing 80 or 100 mph and start heavily slowing down (not very but slowing ) i can hear shots from the exhaust -pipe.. what is it?

cheers

its backfire, fuel igniting with the heat from the exhaust.. its normal n adds to the rotary noise lol.. luv it when mine does it

Yep, it is very normal, the Lady does it all the time - \'specially coming off WOT (",)

For maximum effect I fully recommend:

a) At night (lights up surroundings)
b) In a tunnel (sounds like a shotgun blast)
c) When some wee chav racer is following you and bricks it as she belches flame towards his sh!tty halfrauds universal fit \'front splitter\' (childish but funny)

mine has the OEM cat on, so to make it do this, coming down from high revs engine braking, I jab the throttle...  BANG!

Love it!  (though I am a bit worried my cat is gonna be mashed soon!)

Funny when driving through a busy highstreet or passing a bunch of old biddies LOL

Ha thats half the fun of getting a decent system on it & driving at night, boom bang pop... flame-age, jackpot!!

[m1tch]

yup my FC does that, when comming off boost and then you touch the throttle nice popping sound

aye it is awesome.. i was coming down from *a good 70* after a good hard run and it sounded like an auto shotgun goin off

[karl_tate]

can get mine to do the odd pop but not loud and carnt see any flameage

Mine pops like mad when she\'s hot and flames quite a bit.  Got a decatted racing beat and it rocks.

[RedRummy]

wish mine was decatted, cos I get no flames with the cat...  

would get a lot more bangs too!

[Bobbit]

I\'ve got full catless racing beat and with the air pump connected i got loads of pops and bangs, when i disconnect it i hardly get any. Confused by this as the air pump does not do anything as the pipe is not connected to anything on the exhaust???
Still, it does sounds great, and i love the yellow flash at night
