'pop' during upshifts after installing catback

I just installed a high flow cat and RB duals and now get a pop or bark from the exhaust during spirited upshifts. Is this normal? It never happened before...at least I couldn't hear it with the stock setup.

Back fire.

Totally normal with an unrestrictive exhaust. Get on it hard and let off and you will shoot a fireball, literally.
