    Default Installed CS SRI - running rich?

    It took a little longer than suggested since this is my first time tinkering w/ the MS3 and I also didn't have an impact wrench. Feels a little smoother between shifts now, under 3K rpm feels pretty much the same as stock, but once I get past that, it's a different story.

    However, after installing the SRI I noticed that I'm starting to backfire/afterfire. Once in a while, if shift any faster than granny shifting (btw, NOT under WOT) I hear popping between shifts. Any of you guys experience the same thing? Should I be worried?

    BTW, it's a 2010 MS3, so I'm not aware of any tunes or whatever in the Toronto area... unless I drive down to the states.

    I wouldn't worry about the popping... mine sounds like a gunshot between a hard 2-3 shift.
