Mine pops when I let off but that is just the injectors cutting fuel (DFICO). and my exhaust is loud as hell. 3 pops in that amount of driving is porbably no big deal. Just keep an eye on it as you will probably need new plugs soon. These cars eat plugs when tuned for some reason.

I'm talking about ear drum shattering pops lol. It was crazy I think my whole neighborhood or even city could hear it. It pops a lil when I let off I know that's normal and it's a great sound. Do you think getting my afr raised up a tad might help it run a lil better? When I get my oil changed I'll have them look at the plugs.

Check your plugs definately. Lowering the A/F to 12.6 or so might make it go away but it depends on what is actually causing the pops. Has it done that ever since it was tuned? Did it or does it do the same thing with the stock tune?

Yeah I'm looking into having some local people fix the tune a lil bit. I have yet to hear a pop with the stock ECU but I just put it in last night. And Steve...the pops only started happening recently you never know you could get some too. Also I think my car being muffler-less increases the sound of the pops.
