The car didn’t do that noise when I got it.. The popping happens every few seconds of each other.

Is it popping like a misfire? While it's running and popping still, put your hand on top of the intake....when it pops can you feel it in the engine. My car was doing this and it started getting worse and worse, turned out to be a cracked spark plug. let me know.

Did you gut the cats? ...or if they're bad, I guess. It can cause a build up (pockets) in the exhaust and make it pop like that....

I'm aware of a recall in certain years with the 10 pin connector or something like that with the EFI cars, One of my buddys had a problem with that and it was actually due to what was being recalled. Not exactly sure what it was though, good luck solving the problem.
