Getting Pops and Bangs on a remap

[NICK2506]

Having a discussion with my mate,

to get an exhaust to bang and pop would you make it run lean on the map or make it run rich?

[Baz]

rich...

[NICK2506]

rich...

Even on run down?

[DanTvts]

It would be over fuelling to create pops and bangs, so probs rich.

both.
But a decent cam and exhaust will get the same effect anyway without cheating..

Hmm...yeah cos i have a raceland mani, supersprint decat centre section and a piper backbox, plus piper cams and remap and it wont bang :( haha

[KamRacing]

piper cams are probably too mild then...

I have a 421 and a decat Janspeed system and it barely pops, maybe one or two during downshifts.

Why are people obsessed with it popping?

I love pops and bangs from exhausts, I no it sounds sad but when im on the way to work, when it pops and bangs it always puts a smile on my faces :)

My GTI pops with standard cams, standard manifold, cat and a 2" pugsport

im sure you would have it running ritch so that unburnt fuel in the exhust ignites to pop and bang :)

[Saxotim]

mine used to pop bang and flame haha, 4-1 mani, piper mani back system

But also when running lean, successful ignition on the fuel does not always happen on overrun so unburnt fuel goes into the exhaust...
