I have a 2001 wrx and have just upgraded my top-mount to a large one. Now there is a popping sound when I start my car...believe it is running lean atm. Any thoughts to my problem?

Good news, everyone!
can you be a little more specific about the noise? popping from where? is it as your cranking the starter ,or a few seconds after it starts?can you have some one else start the car for you while you listen to the engine with the hood open? maybe you have a bracket miss aligned?
168mph makes me giggle!!
What other mods do you have in addition to the larger top mount?
