no idea what it could be. If the dealer installed it take the car back and tell them what is going on.

I can't really help you with the backfiring, but DIRTY SANCHEZ?! What is this, a 1995 Adam Sandler comedy routine?!

well it happens when the car is under heavy acceleration, i noticed it yesterday a few times from 1st into second. not off a start but getting up to speed in second i nailed the throttle and shifted into second and you could hear it pop.

also it pops and farts when im coasting in a low gear say 2nd gear 3000ish rpm, like comming to a stop light or something..

i'll drive it a bit more and see exactly when and where its happening.

uhh.. so you're saying it pops when you push in the clutch and go to second when you're going WOT? as stated before, that's normal.

when you're coasting in 2nd, expect to hear the noise, i promise, it isn't going anywhere. you'll learn to love it.

It just mean that your car like every one else's is running rich and the fuel is igniting in the exhaust.

Mine pops REALLY loud sometimes and my car is stock besides the intake.

I think some of you have backfiring mixed up with the noise your exhaust makes when your NOT on the gas aka the popping noise.

Thats not a backfire or prefire like alot of you are saying is normal . It sounds more like a misfire to me .
