    Default Exhaust issues

    I have been having an extra"pop" from the exhaust. It does not affect the performance or RPM. It just "pops" with an extra blow of air and different that usual sound if I put my hand about 5 inches from the pipe. 2008 RS SE5 12500 miles, new plugs and wires, K&M air filter, oil catch can , honda Y gaskets, no other mods. Any Ideas before I self inflict the pain of going to the dealer?
    Thank You

    Yes, and the "pop" happens only when hot. If I shut it off and start again-- no "pop". Only happens after a ride. I hear it only at the exhaust exit, the engine sounds ok

    The OEM Wires damage if you just look at them wrong, Could be the problem

    Run the engine in a dark garage with the side panels off, And after your eyes get accustomed to the dark, If the wires were damaged you should see sparks [arcing]
