Default need sum help! does this sound weird?

ok i just installed sum pacesseter LTs and 3 in ORY. i had in there hooker ceramic coated shorties and 2 1/2 in ory. both had no cats.

after installing on dynoed hp stayed same but torque jump 15 rwtq. so i guess my numbers were fine. anywayz. what i was asking is.

i also installed a janzter tb. this was after the dyno. and i thought everything was good. now im **** about alot of things especially my car as i know most of u are. i started driving and ive noticed that the i dont have such a sensitive throttle on the car anymore that to get on it i really got to smash it down to the ground. and also while im driving and after i get on it and let out a little. i hear a lot of kind of little poppy sounds and i can feel them also. is this just cuz i switch to lts. and cuz i got a cutout. and its just a newer sound or should i be worried at all? the sound is just kind of worrying me i cant tell if its a bad sound of a good sound. let me know thanx! -Brendan

Does the car have traction control? If so, you can "adjust" the throttle cable.

Hard to figure out the popping sound without hearing it. Is the car running alright?

I think he needs a tune.

Is the popping like a back-fire? Or is it like an exhaust pop? Or is it a leak from the header? Hmm, if you feel them, I hope the cut-out isn't pointing towards the panels
