I Shot Out Flames!
 
i jus installed my B&B testpipe and it sounds amazingly loud. and while i was running around with my cousin. he was driving behind me and when i ran up to 9k and switched gears my cousin said it flamed. so then we went into a parking lot and i told him to rev it up to 9k so i stood bak and watched and *POP* it shot out a FAT flame. it was crazyy haha. i will also make a video of this to prove it does! haha once i do i will post it up .

Nobody is gonna doubt that it'll do it.. The RX8 runs incredibly rich. Putting the test pipe on there is gonna just make it easier for those flames to make it out of the exhaust.. If you drive the car around STOCK at 6K+ for about 10 minutes, then go find a parking lot, put it in neutral and mash the throttle you can sometimes shoot flames.. and that's stock..

how loud is it at low rpms trigg?

RXE16T 01-14-2005 02:36 AM

With the HKS catback, I can occassionally shoot flames as well.......... not consistently though. :(

Sounds like I need to dump the cat or something.

IZoomZoomI 01-15-2005 02:27 AM

lol, what did the officer say?

xdrian 01-15-2005 07:38 AM

did you get a video yet ? i want to see flames !!!!

RotorManiac 01-15-2005 08:32 AM

I can understand you being excited and all, but its not big deal. all 8s shoot flames even with stock cat AND exhaust. with an aftermarket cat back its much easier, with your setup every gear change goes boom;) I'd llove to see the vid though:)
Oh the other day I was behind a friend's rx8 with greddy catback and stock cat and at WOT it was shooting flames in every gear change:rolleyes:

easymmkayrx8 01-15-2005 12:06 PM

hell, even a stock FC will shoot flames like there's no tomorrow, that doesn't make it not cool still ;)
