RE: backfire

Backfiring and flames can also be caused by your engines timing & cam profile...

If you've got a lot of valve overlap (like from a racing cam),
unburned fuel can enter your exhaust system... flames [sm=smiley20.gif]

RE: backfire

or the bypass function within a diverter valve can be faulty too. I don't know how it all ties in with turbo though, all my knowledge is from 80s-90s car books.
