Welcome to club lupo! Pop and bang. Mmmm. Seriously?!

a car that runs perfectly, generating maximum power runs very very smoothly. Every single molecule of fuel burns to make pressure to push those pistons down. Any popping or banging outside the cylinders does nothing but waste fuel (and power).

You really really dont want that...

Yes, it is possible to inject fuel during the wrong period, ignite it late, so it burns in the exhaust. Damages exhaust valves. Need to get rid of the cat. Don't do it...

show us some pics of your car :)

I'm sure I've seen kits on eBay that basically work by cutting the ignition for a second so fuel is sent through the engine but there's no spark, it's then sent straight down the exhaust pipe where a spark plug is mounted and firing and ignites the fuel. Bang/fire/pop.

It truly sounds like one of the dumbest modifications ever and I really don't get it.

Sounds like what they do at airshows... inject raw fuel (kerosene) into the exhaust to make white smoke.
