No it wont backfire at all. Backfire is called backfire because fire goes backwards and out you're intake... lol "yeah it'll backfire more!" oooh boy
If you're cars backfiring you got some serious ****in problems

ok, well whatever backfire "really" is, running cat-less will increase the popping/exploding effect in your exhaust system. i am running a cat-free test pipe on my talon and do get quite a bit of popping sometimes. occasionally get a pretty substantial boom in the middle of the exhaust. i think i may be running tad rich right now...
the converter actually heats the exhaust up again after coming out of the comb. chamber. with a pyrometer you can measure the difference in temp. between the pipe before the cat. and after. usually about 180 degrees hotter post cat. kinda neat how that works.
