Do you have stock exhaust? Mine never backfired until I put the catback on. Most cars backfire when you change the exhaust, especially if you go with a straight through muffler/resonator-less exhaust.

I kinda liked it though...sounds mean. There is, however, a fine line seperated mean sounding and sh!tty sounding...
