Last night I had 2 backfires. I blew my MAF sensor and i unpluged it cuz someone said it will go into a different mode and i hit it again and liek 3 secs into hitting it it backfired again with fire comin out my intake. Why is it backfireing????

cause you have a wet kit. i have the same kit as you. gm 20920. our intkae manifolds are not designed for wet kits. extra fuel puddles in there and then it ingites and come out the intake. what rpm's were you hitting it at..97 CAMARO RS<br />12.9@103mph<br />best 60ft..1.9 ( on street tires)<br /> 1.7 (on gas)<br />turbo supra 12.5@119mph (street tires)<br />new times to come sporting the sp63gt -

mike why do you say that about the intake manifold? Slacker69 says he's been running a wet shot for a WHILE in his '00 f-body and it runs fine.Comment

I have a wet 100 shot and i spray out of the hole at the track. I never get a backfire. I always prep i rev engine before spraying and make sure all fuel is cleared out of the way. I have had 2 backfires both were after i did alot of spraying and then tried to spray out of the hole one with a 50 did nothing just a boom and i had to put intake back on the second was with a 100 i cracked my airbox apart.<b><a href=\"http://www.sick-sixx.com\" target=\"_blank\">SICK-SIXX MEMBER</a></b><br />NA 14.345 with a 1.863 60 foot<br />Nitrous 13.03@99.5 with a 1.63 60 foot<br /><br />2000 Camaro 3.8L A4: USE TO HAVE Comp Cam 210/220 .535/.547 113lsa 111 I/C, Port and Polished Heads, NX Wet Kit 100 Shot, CPRA made by CP, RK Sport HeadersComment

it's wise to spray when your over 3000 rpm's. if i'm going to spray out of the hole i rev it like hell to clear all the extra fuel that might be in the intake manifold..97 CAMARO RS<br />12.9@103mph<br />best 60ft..1.9 ( on street tires)<br /> 1.7 (on gas)<br />turbo supra 12.5@119mph (street tires)<br />new times to come sporting the sp63gtComment

Yes, our intake manifolds are not meant to have fuel in them.
High rpm's like 3000 and above can kind of limit backfires.
You really shouldn't be having that many backfires.
Something might be wrong.
Check to see if both solenoids are firing at the same time, unscrew them from their mounting location and checkRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...2 weeks ago -
Not much going on, replaced my Kenwood double din stereo with a Pioneer double din, the Kenwood had problems. Then replaced my power inverter for my reverse...3 weeks ago
