it could be letting sound out of the gasket, im not sure it would sound like a backfire, and you would probably hear it when you are giving it gas, not letting off.

lol, thats normal. like if u let off the gas and your roms drop? like rpms above 2500? cause if so then thats normal, i get it a lot more than i used to with a cam in my car. if thats what your talking about then no worries, but anything else is a bad thing.


p.s: does it sound like " POP POP POP "? or like one loud freakin king kong "POP!!!"
