Does anyone get backfires from 2 step and exhaust?

Just curious since I just saw some videos on youtube throwing flames with 2step. All of the cars in the videos had aftermarket exhaust. Knowing the evos run rich from the factory, I thought it may be possible, but I'm not ruling out the fact that some may run anti-lag.

all evo ixs have launch control

put the car in first
be perfectly still (pull ebrake to check and put it back down)
hold gas
it will bounce at 5k

What do you mean you dont think it has it anymore. What year is your car? I dont believe any 8 has them. I have an 8, and will ask for it when I get a tune.
