I find that getting a life normally helps with these situations. Whenever I get the urge to want fake pops and bangs I think to myself
"No that would make you look like a cunt"
Normally works.

Uhhhhh, if it's wired directly to the coil pack as it should, then you're getting a misfire.
Sooooooo you're just not hearing it it's down to your exhaust.
If you got a cat, you're gonna hear nothing unless you turn up the fuel and ruin the engine.

you guys are so boring. the pops and bangs of a spark cut are fun!
Normally a decat helps result.
As does a warm exhaust.

I'll go do some work on an engine I have in the garage tomorrow, I'll show you a rev limiter on a proper engine  (here's hoping the limiter still works!)
You should just install a 16V engine, they naturally pop on overrun, especially at about 1700rpm and changing gear at high revs.

you have to tap the throttle, let it bounce of the limiter for a couple of secs then keep tapping it

pahaha, pal, dont even spoil my night. . . . probably. :')
They do oil by design though, the reason they bang their tits off is their map.
Because they fire on every rotation, and run up to near 9K they run rich as hell to stop them melting the cat. Mazda even put an 'air pump' in simply to pump air into the exhaust lol On a standard map they cut the spark at 9k and let an impressive fart out the back.

If you just want a pop - get a packet of crisps - eat them - inflate - then burst
This should satify your pop requirement!

If you got one with launch control set that to around 3k revs then rev upto about 5k, come off gas and press button.
That should make it bangs.... Mine does.
