Exclamation Car backfire with Wald exhuast??!!

I just installed my Wald quad exhuast last weekend and got rid of my Greddy's. Im running a full exhuast system with the Invidia midpipes+Wald exhaust. When the car is coming to a complete stop during 2nd gear, I can hear the exhuast backfiring. This never happened with the Greddy exhuast! At first i was kind of freaked out but I thought of the possiblities and it makes sense. Is it possible that the midpipe is bigger and the exhuast pipping (or the other way around), meaning better Airflow and release leftover Air making it backfire. I gotta say it sounds so sick. Most cars i hear that backfire like these are the EVO's or S2K. ANyone have the same problems or is it just me??!... Sorry no video clip but you guys should understand what im trying to say lolz

Mine does that too and I love it. I think PPE is gonna build an exhaust to match up with their headers and I'm hoping it will do it as well!

LOL - I would freak out if I heard my car backfire! It obviously hasn't happened to mine yet.

Rob - what causes yours to do that? I thought you've just got the HKS axle back (like me).
