Default can any one help!

i took my 01 ss to the shop because it was making a popping noise from the exhaust while i accelerate and then goes away. the folks at a local sponser shop informed me that they could not find the problem. they check all the sensors, plugs, wires, tune, no check engine light, not throwing any codes. the car has an s cam kit and gears, long tubes and a tune. i am stuck in a corner and dont know what to do..can any one suggest something?

Does it go away when the engine heats up?
With some exhaust systems this is entirely normal. Personally I like a little pop in the exhaust

Is it a kinda sputtering sound while going through the RPM's and sounds like it's loading up?

I had a similar problem on mine, it ended up being one of the injector clips weren't on tight. I would unplug and replug them back in and see, if that's what it sounds like.

Try changing the 02's and checking all the injector by unplugging and then plugging them back in.
