exhaust sparks... why?

installed agency power full exhaust yesterday and when i shoot out a fireball, theres a whole bunch of sparks in the flame... is it just because the exhaust is new, or is this something i should be worried about?

It's chaff designed to throw off police radar. It's a good thing!
