Yes, doing a search for "backfire" or "backfiring" would have brought you the answer. However, after removing the pre-cat, you will notice some backfiring.

Could be your spark plugs. Have you replaced within the last 15K miles? Also could be running a tad rich and some of the leftover gas could be igniting in the wrong places causing a backfire.

The plugs are new, the car always ran rich, i was having hard time passing smog couple day ago, but after switching out a set of new 02 it passed fine. maybe i though it's normal with the mods i have?
