I just had the same problem with some back firing. It was due to a high resistance in the spark plug's leads as well as a fouled spark plug.

I went for a ride recently with a big group of BMWs(almost 20 of various models) Apparently the backfiring is a common thing. It will be more frequent with after market exhaust.
