Adding High performance Exhaust makes it pop small Fire?
 
I just have a quick question..

When Some one adds for example a Borla cat back Exhaust pipe on the Rx8,
Does it make the exhaust pipe, shoot smalls balls of Fire..? or like a poping sound?.. you can say.

only if you run a catlessmidpipe

kersh4w 01-18-2010 02:56 AM

not true.

you can pop fire from a completely stock rx8.

Easy_E1 01-18-2010 02:58 AM

You will blow more fire with out a Catalytic Converter. As in catless midpipe. And a Catback exhaust.

RX8sd 01-18-2010 03:00 AM

normal...mine pops all the time....even when mine was stock....with a nice pretty flame every once and a while. "sigh"..

kersh4w 01-18-2010 03:01 AM

you will pop the most fire if you remove the header.

Harvis 01-18-2010 05:11 PM

i have been asking in other post , if u put a catless pipe and leave the catback stock, could you pop fire ?

tubingchamp 01-18-2010 05:20 PM

Yep.

Jorge44 01-18-2010 05:33 PM

K thanks guys for answering my question ...

euro05rx8 01-18-2010 08:51 PM

I have a B&B Mide Pipe and with the stock exhaust it blew nice flames. I just got an Exoticspeed R1-T and now the flame balls are even bigger. And pops alot more. Its great:Eyecrazy:

Razz1 01-21-2010 11:36 AM

Until you get a ticket!

Juan09 01-21-2010 11:39 AM

i still have my stock exhaust and it pops small fire.

mike[piston eater] 01-21-2010 11:39 AM

youll never get a ticket if your rolling with a racing beat exhaust and single res midpipe i run it its so freakin quiet , my car is quieter than jedis, but thats cause he has the header

Gr8Bullet 01-21-2010 11:45 AM

i pop all the time with my midpipe. friends say i spit some good size flames. :)

Harvis 01-22-2010 09:51 AM

Gr8 do you a hace ap cat delete only?

laythor 01-22-2010 11:57 PM

yeah.. catless midpipe adds just a touch of fire if you play with the throttle.

Just keep it down around the cops and your fine. I live right down the street from a police station.

I was looking into miss fires and stalling. Someone on here said if your blowing blue flames its due to missfire. You should look into it.

AJ's Shinka 01-23-2010 05:21 AM

mine :)

My exoticspeed pops all the time with the stock cat. I love it.

shakeyourbrakes 01-23-2010 08:27 PM

Just a question but why would it be that m/ts easily put out flames, but its near impossible with an auto? Ive taken the catless bandb midpipe route with custom catback for awhile and couldnt get it to happen. I get pops though but no flame...Is it a rpm cutoff issue? Just curious
