pop!!!

eclipser2001 · #1 04-23-2005, 04:50 PM

there was a honda civic that passed me as i was driving along the road. and as he changed gears it made this POP!!!! noise.when that happened i thought i had a blown tire. i checked them and they were fine. i caught up to the civic and it poped again. that story brings me to my question, what is that pop noise.

exhaust back firing? Was it a higher pitched pop or mid pitched pop?
Maybe he was shooting at you

lol, more likely is like CivicSpoon says, exhaust back firing, with a striaght through exhaust system, with no CAT, it will back fire! mine does that alot when I have the silencer taken out, it still does even when I have it in but you cant really hear it

well the pop i heard was really loud. after the second pop i saw a some black smoke comming out from the exhust tip.

you normally see a puff of somke when VTEC kicks in

eclipser2001 · #6 04-24-2005, 05:28 PM

so the smoke and the pop have nothing to do with each other?

why are you so bitter?

My integ backfires just about every time I shift. And I have a CAT. Owell.......

kenng · #13 04-27-2005, 02:36 PM

you sure your CAT isn't gone bad or anything?

I have a CAT too but its a stainless hi flow CAT which doesn't do what a CAT should do really and it back fires everytime I shift, when I had the OEM CAT in for MOT test it is fine!

CBURKE · #14 04-27-2005, 03:29 PM

Are you being funny about my CAT? lol
