Default pop pop no power....

ok i was coming up the road whch is a hill, i was in 3rd at 30mph. I down shifted to second and floored into the turn at around 20mph, i chirpped the tires and started accelerating hard then my exhaust went POP POP and i had no power, i shifted into 3rd and was fine at 15psi. I did a 0-60 last night and didnt run into a fuel cut or anything, WTF happend today?

Missfire... the pop pop was igniting fuel in the exhaust... check your plugs and wires

not true, that is fuel cut. the pop was def a backfire mine always backfires when I hit fuel cut. depending on weather and temps fuel cut can happen more or less. I fuel cut a 20PSI in 3rd if its colda night if it is a nice day I can run 20 all day

it doesnt have to be cold out for it to happen, thats just one circumstance where it does happen. But it depends on how your engine is running. For some reason the car reached the maximum the ECU will allow the fuel pump or injectors to push and automatically cuts it off to prevent any damage.
