Hello everyone,
I have a 1998 Celica GT auto with the 5sfe engine and I was merging on the highway so I decided to floor it but when it got to the 4000 rpm I heard a loud "pop" from the engine bay. Sounds like it came from the intake. Plus, it wouldn't shift and seem like it was hitting the rev limiter. So I wanted to see if anyone can help me with that.

Mods: Injen short ram intake and custom 2.25 exhaust.

Sounds like it backfired through the intake. Do you have any codes? When is the last time things like spark plugs and wires were changed? Any other issues prior or since? Usually backfire through the intake is a timing or run lean issue.

Or worst case you have valves sticking.
