Why would it backfire?

If its just a de wastegates td04 it's good to make that kind of boost from such an old turbo, so the fuel must be getting in or it just wouldn't boost to that. 10 months is hellish good, I lasted 400 miles at 45psi. If its 9mm what has been done to the pump out of interest?
Yeah it's de wastegated , and I know. Yep I've been running no less than 30psi for the past 10 months. I don't really boot it everywhere only give it some stick every once in a while... Always had regular oil changes using shell hx7 and sometimes run it on shell v power. Never ran it on veg.
The pump and turbo is Danny's old set up , I'm not sure exactly what has been done to it , I just bought it and had it put on...
I do know it as much as it revs over 5k and Danny has said it is gov'd and I've seen the lda and that had been ground too. The compensator screw is all the way out and the car is idling at about 1100 all the time with the max fuel screw as the only way to adjust rpm now.
We did also manage to knock the throttle arm back a spline aswell. But that is all I know.
Ruan, if you mean a backfire like this,

then it will never happen with me because I don't plant my foot to the floor at stupidly low rpm and injecting nitrous...
