i don't know how you can make your car do this every time, but i have had issues with backfiring with my car. i had a huge vacuum leak, so raw gas was getting into the exhaust, and blowing up because the mixture was too lean to ignite.

this is what happened when mine backfired,


so do with that what you will.

I hear that. Blew up my muffler the same way.

If you want a backfire, blip the throttle and as the engine starts to rev up, shut the car off.
