everytime I'm getting on it with my new intake (aem cai) as well as my old short ram, I'd shift into 2nd and hear BANG! come from my intake, I thought it was just my old intake being loud but my new one's doing it, I have new plugs and wires NGK BKR5E-11's and Magnecore 8.5's, do I need to mess with my timing?

Intake backfire generally means a lean condition. Look at fuel. Possibly a crank sensor or cam sensor (just a hunch)?

you'll prob need a by-pass valve or breather installed on your intake.

you'll have to bring it up to ARD.. and we'll figure it out. and are you sure its a backfire and not something clanging around in the engine bay. perhaps i may have something to do in relation to your gutted cat or a clogged fuel filter or something. i have never gotten any sort of backfire on my car, but hopefully we can get it figured out and fixed.
