Default Burbling and popping on decellaration

I just put a Corsa Pacesetter exhaust with a Bassani X pipe on my C5. It sounds great, but I was surprised that it burbles and pops between shifts. Is this normal? I thought that the X pipe was supposed to eliminate that.

I have a Corsa Indy on my 2000 along with the corsa x-pipe and it does the same...mine is a 6 speed so it really pops and burbles coming down in gears...(I like it really) the x-pipe makes it less then it would if used with the stock h pipe so I have been told...

Nature of the design...I think it sounds like an exotic sports car myself!

Normal and a function of firing order and side to side balance of exhaust pressure.

I love it too
