If backfiring was a terribly bad and car damaging thing, then race cars probably wouldn't be backfiring...

Ok, the thread starter may not be shakespeare but you guys are waaaay too harsh, especially since most of you joined in the last couple of months. The question has some validity, a backfire that is large enough can damage your mufflers/pre-silencers.

I don't see why his post warrants being made fun of like that, mods please close this thread.
