I recently put some MSD coils on to replace the stock ones and noticed when i WOT the car when the car goes to hit second(auto) it hits the gear a little harder(torque wise) but then my exhaust makes kinda like a loud pop into the gear, sounds cool but just wondering why it would do this? Does it have something to do with the spark or fuel burning dfferently , i have no other MSD ignition stuff on the car, just swapped out the coils? Please educate me on this. The car is a bit more responsive but it could just be me

That loud POP is called a back fire, its normally cuased by improper timming or an exhaust leak...

Check for exhaust leaks and try gapping your plugs to .054 if they are not already...

(Backfires+NOS)=broken

Doesnt sound like a backfire, N20 not all the way done yet, still need to gap plugs and hook the rest of the lines up, after i get the right length hose. Think my plugs are gapped at .052, but cant remember.

Go for my Dyno tune and chip on the 27th at APEX

.054/0.052 is too be for nitrous! Gap them to about .032 before going to the dyno.
