Greddy comp tic question

Will this exhaust backfire often with a flame? I heard it will since there's no cat in it.
And will it have the "rumble-ish" noise when you let off the throttle? (I hear that noise alot on the srt4 neons)

Here's a picture of the exhaust..

Thanks

I have a full 3" exhaust with no cat and I don't backfire. Most times it has less to do with the cat and more to do with an excessive amount of fuel, this is often from a crappy tune, vent to atmo bov on a maf car or certain kinds of launch control.

If your looking to shoot flames you can do it with much cheaper exhausts. :P

A lot of backfiring and flames are related to tune and exhaust leaks You might get some rumbling w/o the cats.

Shooting flames is more tune dependent then exhaust dependent, although a catless exhaust helps.

horrible restriction!
and yes backfiring is seen ESP on untuned cars with no cats from my experience.
also i heard more of that "popping" nasty srt4 sound when i had my stock cat on. the restriction def played a role in cutting off air it seemed as it made the pop pop pop sound as the rpms dropped. also mods will alter the note of the car like cams made a night and day difference in sound for my car from more of a smooth note to a rumbly (kinda like subie :/) but much deeper bassy sound.

If you have the silencer in on this exhaust, you should probably just get a different one. You're defeating the purpose of it.
