Fuel system issue could cause a backfire threw the exhaust, like a weak fuel pump, plugged fuel filter or the strainer in the fuel tank, may want to look at the fuel system, may even be leaking fuel injectors. A fuel pressure test and bleed down test would tell the story on that. Also may be a weak spark, check to see if there is a nice white, bluish spark at the end of the spark plug wires, may have an ignition problem like a weak coil.
