i have the same problem but its occasional. Make sure all your header bolts are tight and also all the bolts down the exhaust. You could possibly be sucking air in if they are not tight. Also check plugs and wires, cap and rotor. On my car i have header downpipe no cat and a straight through muffler.....i was told thats wat is causing my backfire

What type of muffler do you have: a perferated core or louvered core? Also how wide is you exaust pipe? Do you have a tri-Y or 4-to-1 headers?
