Backfiring -- How did YOU fix it?
I've read a ton of threads about backfiring. Causes have ranged from exhaust leaks to TPS adjustments.
What Fixed YOUR backfiring?
It would be a solid thread that listed Successful Fixes.
Thanks for anyone contributing.

Interested to see what people say, does backfiring always mean rich mine seems to do it sometimes especially revving up to 3k and letting go it will pop pop is this safe for the car? could back firing be a sign of detonation? i like the sound but not if its hurting something i still have the main cat in.

To each there own.
You backfire because your loading your exhaust up with fuel and the hot cat makes it backfire. Running rich causes it. Once I took out all my cats and went straight pipe with an apexi n1 can I dont bacfire anymore.

Would the age of the Cat make it more prone to backfire?
I get that it's unburnt fuel.
Straight pipe probably not an option since the 7 is already the loudest car on the street.

I fully embrace backfiring lol
But seriously, the majority of a catalytic converters magic sauce is in the front of it. A couple good heavy episodes and you melt the magic sauce to itself. Then you have a hot honeycomb without its ability to combust excess hydrocarbons. A car will back fire more after that. Especially since your original issue that destroyed the catalytic converter is unresolved and dumping more fuel into the mix

a lean burn can also cause backfiring, if the TPS is out of adjustment or faulty then the ECU won't go into fuel cut properly. when the ECU detects a heavy deceleration condition it turns the injectors off, sometimes it will just give a single pop during that transition which is usually due to an overly rich cruising condition.
