Huge backfireing problem

Way guys I have a fd3s with a massive backfire. On decel it sounds like a bridge ported rotor and is almost gun shot loud

Here's some info about the car:

Aftermarket exhaust
Over fueling
Link computer
Was told one side of front rotor is down 30 psi
It bing a side seal problem
Doesn't loose power or splutter at all tho

It happens all through the rev range untill I either give it has or clutch in.

I'm thinking the over fueling could be a factor and am getting a retune soon

Just wondering if any one knows anything else that can cause this

#1 and #2 may have something to do with it.
I'll leave this with the 3rd gen guys though.

well, based on what you revealed in the other thread, your car is getting too much fuel and the timing is ALL screwy. tuning should take care of your issues.
