What you guys are referring to is a muffler explosion or afterfire. A backfire is when it happens in the intake.


One is mostly harmless (if you still have cats it will cause issues) while the other can cause serious harm (and if it's happening on a fuel injected car, something is SERIOUSLY screwed).
