Making your Car shoot flames out of exhaust?Julzboi661 07-20-2006, 12:46 AM How can you produce a wanted flame out of the exhaust when you shift or floor the gas pedal? is there any way? Oz 07-20-2006, 01:02 AM Put a cup of gas in the muffler. 00accord44 07-20-2006, 09:48 AM You can do it pretty easy. Just gotta drill a hole in your exhaust pipe and place a spark plug in there. Then use a rich gasoline. Its probably not the best idea though because A) You'll get pulled over the second a cop sees flames shooting out your tailpipe B) You'll be scorching the bumper of those behind you C) You'll melt your own bumper in a week KustmAce 07-21-2006, 12:27 AM You can do it pretty easy.

On a carburated car, you do wire a spark plug about 6 inches from exhaust exit, and run it to a switch which sparks the plug. Then as you rev up the motor, you will get more unburned gasoline in the exhaust, thus igniting it and shooting flame. But its very dangerous both to the motor and the car. On a car with a ECU onboard, it will destroy your engine to put a traditional flamethrower setup on it. If you want the same effect, hook up a propane tank and wire it through the exhaust pipe.

This does do damage to the exhaust after a while. elementskater15 07-23-2006, 10:03 PM My civic has a problem with the exhaust valves so it blows fuel out the cylender during compression...so when I drive it hard (after the exhaust is hot) I get a pop and about a 3 foot flame from the muffler between gears. It looks kinda cool at night but it blows soot all over my bumper and it cant be good on my way expensive cat-back. corning_d3 07-23-2006, 10:21 PM I blew a manifold off my ranger by killing the engine for a few seconds, then firing it back up... tazdev 07-25-2006, 05:01 AM free flowing exhaust with no catalytic converter and an engine that runs rich 79Bandit 09-04-2006, 01:07 AM i have a flame kit if anyone is interested in it pm me. L-Spec 09-05-2006, 03:46 AM Get a rotary, wheeeee!!! ghostrx7 09-05-2006, 07:55 AM ^yup, my rx does it with just straight pipes. bout 2ft'ers Ralliart 3000gt 09-06-2006, 05:51 PM So basicly if you want it to look like there is somthing wrong with you car, do it, it will make you look like a retarded ricer............. ghostrx7 09-08-2006, 11:57 AM if you watch alot of japanese tuner vehicles, they pretty much all shoot flames. i agree that on a honda or something, its worthless, but on a turbocharged monster, its an awesome site... Ralliart 3000gt 09-10-2006, 04:07 PM Only if its all natural.................... but if it isn't ^^ ghostrx7 09-11-2006, 08:05 AM agreed! imbroke420 01-08-2007, 03:42 AM i saw a supercharged mustang doing donuts blowing flames out every once in a while at these races i went to. i almost pissed my pants in awe, hearing the supercharger whine and seeing tire smoke and flames everywhere. but yeah that was running pipes from the headers back, loud as hell. too bad those races dont go on anymore ever since some greek dude brought like 50 of his family members (no joke i swear to god like 50) to watch him race his damn tiburon and lost control, didnt stop, and launched his car into a dried up pond. theres been security at that place ever since. sorry to hijack this thread. yeah flames and stuff kick ass ghostrx7 01-08-2007, 08:29 AM minus the fact it burns/stains your bumper! i love my flames, but im gettin the car painted soon, and have to put a cat on it to prevent the stains... XeVeNskyLiNE 01-12-2007, 01:32 AM They make ALS (Anti-Lag System) for some cars, or so I've heard. It keeps the turbine spinning so there's no lag, but obviously it couldn't be all that great on the engine and it'll backfire alot. I need to look it up some more. Edit: I love Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-lag ghostrx7 01-12-2007, 09:45 AM they designed that for the new hydrogen rotary turbo. it powers the turbo electrically at low rpms im told.. XeVeNskyLiNE 01-12-2007, 01:03 PM Cool, never heard of that. Is it just a system by itself or are some of the new rotary cars coming with it? jcsaleen 01-16-2007, 02:59 PM Get a rotary, wheeeee!!! Agreed! 110 mph + down shift + straight 3 inch pipe = WOOSH! ghostrx7 01-17-2007, 03:09 PM Is it just a system by itself or are some of the new rotary cars coming with it? its a new design that they made, but its not released to the public yet... midgetracing28 01-17-2007, 11:17 PM free flowing exhaust andrunning a little rich works great. at night the underside of my f250 is like a light show because the dual exhaust shoot an 8 inch flame out back and forth. its kinda cool and im thinking of redoing the exhaust so it exits on the passenger side.away from the gas tank lol. this is only at idle or when the revs drop after being hard on the gas. mr_mushroom 04-18-2007, 04:17 AM i took the cats off my truck and got fire. then i put them back. i take them off when i feel like being super loud.
