i've always wanted a car that popped and backfired when i downshifted. ever watch ALMS races? look for the flames shooting out of the exhausts (on the passenger side) of the M3 GTR's. just a thought, do you blip the throttle when you downshift? i've taken to doing that. just hit the gas and the clutch at the same time, matching the engine speed in the new gear to the wheel speed. i do it because it's cool, picked it up from watching motorcycle racers. probably helps one go faster on a road course too....
