Default backfire on throttle over run

Hey everyone
I have just got my car back after replacing the DME and am just wondering if a small backfire is normal on throttle over run. I am just wondering if I damaged the exhaust, when I limped home when DME problem first struck(high idle and running rough and backfiring a lot) or if its normal
TIA

peace

Depends on how much backfire you are talking about... Mine crackles and pops sometimes. Anything more than that would bear looking into IMO

It sounds cool... Like a sports car should lol

lol yeah it's definately the cool minor snarl type, but as I am new 952 owner, thought I'd check with the experts, just in case
