its normal.

you might not know this, but if u you have a free flowing exhaust, w/ no obstructions (ie: catalytic converter, baffles in ur muffler, harsh bends) you can shoot out sweet as flames due to these "pops" in ur exhaust.

thats what the larger diameter exhausts do, unless it is as loud as a back fire, then you should check into it. The popping is perftectly normal.
