As far as I know, it hasn't happened again since I leaned out the A/F ratio with my Canzoomer.

In comparison the M flash still runs very rich in the higher RPMs. It may be enough to still pull off this trick.

mazsport will do the lightweight flywheel install for $240.

ferman mazda will do the install for $467.

I might be visiting them, but even though I'm going to have the mazdaspeed flywheel installed, I think if I go with mazsport I may void some warrantees. Anyone know?

sorry for the offtopic post

I'm not so sure...I have another video in my collection with flames shooting out on the track...but it is from the back so it is much harder to see

Plus M flash probably killed this possibility...CZ is the only way (well Rick Shaw unit but I'm not that rich

)

This is the first time I have ever seen those flames, I have heard about them for sooo long, but no videos have ever worked, but now that I have seen it, I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO DO IT!!!! Has anyone done it with stock exhaust and have videos for it?
