idk if this is a good thing or not but when i go from a dig and i shift into second really quick i get a loud backfire and flame out the exhaust. It doesnt seem to bother the car at all. Wat is this coming from and is there a way to make it stop cuz i dont feel it should do that

All depends on the tune. Normally it is excess fuel from going WOT, then letting off when shifting.
Is it popping when it does this?
Mine was not considered a backfire. Now if it is a true backfire it could be something you should look into.

Thats a good one i bet it is trying to live up to the name. Nah i think it has to do with an 02 sensor being out and the car running real rich
