Popping sound. Maybe from Exhaust.

Ive got these popping sounds coming out of my exhaust. I think it may be the unspent fuel line, but I'm not sure. I have a RB header to RB presilencer to Corksport Catback, so its pretty free flowing, but i have these pops. They don't sound good either. Any idea what they are?

just rev the engine to red line then let off. Helps if the pipes are hot.
