Mine used to once in a while, but since my last tune it hasn't done it once

 

Mine backfires when Im coming down on high throttle. Its normal though.

 

When you say backifre, you're just talking about it popping right? I swa Soviet said the exhaust "ignites", meaning theres flames? And are you guys saying backfiring is something you want?

So theoretically, could you get two small turbos and have each of them routed to two exhaust outlets (considering we all have 4 cylinders)? I know it'd be useless probably, but THEORETICALLY, could you?

 

Backfire is literally when you're running rich and you get fuel in the exhaust. Then when you shut the throttle you stop adding gas to the mix, so it turns into a fireball. If you're running rich enough, you will actually get a fireball to shoot out of your exhaust. Normally it's just a loud pop.

It's not a bad thing, explosions are happening thousands of times per minute in your intake, this explosion just happens in a non controlled environment that's all.

I think a better term would be an afterfire really.

 

Two cylinders wouldn't provide as much force on the exhaust turbine as four, so I'm not sure how practical it'd be.

 

Ya i would think you could. Just make a custom manifold that has two different outlets and put turbos on each of them. Someone should do it even though its prolly to be the same as a single turbo.

 

It's been done, looks like ***, didn't make a lot of power. If you want to turbo a 4 cylinder, all you need is one.

 

well yeah u guys i didnt think itd be very practical, but idk, if you made a small enough tubro maybe it could work? Just brain stormin

 

Anyone wanna see a Vortech Supercharger (basically a turbo compressor wheel that is belt driven instead of the rotors being belt driven that are common in superchargers). This one is in an S2000, you just gotta love that honda engine mounted vertically instead of horizontally (My next car is an S2000... would absolutely love a rear wheel drive honda!!!!)

The vortech will carry torque all the way to redline with ease. It builds boost pressure per rpm though, so prior about 5k rpm, power output is low. You need a high revver to take advantage of it. Most people regard the turbo as being able to so the same thing for less money.
