Is this the new cool thing?
I hear this every once in a while, usually from expensive-looking sports cars. What I hear typically is more of a rumbling series of “pops”, rather than loud backfires.
Yes it is. The pop and crackle on over run is considered cool. Like old carbureted cars with poor fuel control.
Yep, the rice burners think it is cool…

Maybe I am to old but the rice burners sound like a combo of a fart can and a wedding car with a bunch of tin cans tyied to it.
Wht are the mechanics behind the poop phenomena? advance timing? ?
Fuel injected cars shut the fuel off when the throttle is closed. The tuners let a little through and crack the throttle a bit so it lights off in the exhaust.
I saw one a couple of months ago. I was impressed. Negatively impressed.
