Re: ive got a ?

backfires are not good for people cars but generally not a problem other than they make your car sound like a POS. There is no boost threshold which when you go over it happens. A sudden change in pressure in your exhaust is simplest explanation I don't want to go into too much detail as it would be a waste of both our times.

A lot of backfires on tuned cars are from left over fuel being in the combustion chamber that is being burned off. This has a lot to do with fuel delivery and cam adjustment. If you want something like that they make little pieces you stick in your muffler to shoot flames like F&F.

Re: ive got a ?

Mine will backfire on almost every 1 to 2 shift. Exhaust leak at the manifold is the reason I believe. And yes I hate it

That doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with it. I'm sure mine will do it to once I get it tuned in a little more, but I have a cat and that thing is going to get burnt badly.

Re: ive got a ?

to answer your q stock talon turbos run mid 15's. The t25 runs decent psi but isn't a very big turbo so won't be a lot of airflow. 20g is bigger than a few turbos and will put down 400whp/.

Do you mean like this which all it is.Is a bigger turbo,exhaust,intercooler piping and fuel adjustments?

Or

Maybe your thinking about the Stutter Box which in a way also sounds like a backfire

Re: ive got a ?

What would it take so that my car backfires every 5 seconds?...I want flames to shoot out at least 8 feet everytime I shift, can I achieve these results by running 6 psi and a k&n filter? (I missed these posts and is part of the reason for my return).

This thread reminds me i need to setup a dyno date to get a fresh tune
