I like it sometimes...like when I'm cruising in first and shifting into second right in between 3k-4k rpms. right when you release your foot off the accelerator and clutch in !!! that one good pop! then second is engaged and your off again!

what a great sensation...but other than that i hate it most of the time and I'm searching for a fix

Or a sign that your tune is ON

Depends on how you look at it.

Get an aftermarket X pipe - will fix a LOT of the issue

Why wouldn't you?

Can't see why it would bother anyone...but to each his own.

Mine is present on decel but not over the top, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy! Now, on to getting that gurgle...

Don't count on it. You have the Corsa system like mine and all the x-pipe will do for you is muffle the pops, not get rid of them.

LTs, X-pipe, Tis. Love the pop. I don't even mind my squeeky Hawk HP brake pads. Other people probably think my brakes are bad. It just reminds my that my DD is a friggin race car.
