just fit a twin 3" xforce system to the car and noticed on a cold startup it pops and farts around, just doesnt sound right. it only lasts a few secs. my question is, is this normal? i can only think that due to the larger pipes it takes a sec or two for the oxy sensors to pick up. doesnt throw any errors or anything. or am i over reacting. haha
cheers,

Shouldn't make any difference. The size of the exhaust won't change how the car starts when cold. Are there any leaks?

yeh, its odd cause it only started doing it ONCE the system was fitted. kinda sounds like a miss, but only lasts for prob 4sec max.
