Guessing a bit here, but I would say the old carby was sticking a bit and letting excess fuel through while off throttle, which then gets dumped into the exhaust making your popping/backfire noises.

lame it sounded so goooood

It was probably slowly destroying your engine, but it sounded cool.

Apparently Dad reckons I got backfire but I never noticed till the next morning when it started running rough and I had to keep the revs up or it would stall since I was being dads chaffeur he reckoned I didn't put BP fuel in but I did! (He hates safeway fuel with a vengence so whenever I go to dads I spent a few extra bucks on BP fuel just to keep the peace!) lol I had burst a hole in the big air pipe dad found out when we got home so he gaffa'ed it

well it only started when i put the cannon on, now its not doing it at all. cant see how that would be destroying my engine??:confused:

It wouldn't be destroying your engine, and it was probably always doing it, the cannon just amplified it.
