Default Exhaust backfire

Getting a backfire when going hard through the gears. So 1st gear to the redline and as i'm shifting into second there is a loud (backfire/pop/bang/explosion) from the exhaust.

Is this a problem such as engine running rich?

I've got 4-2-1, decat supersprint with 2" backbox.
