shoot flames
 
would and aftermarket exhaust with a cat delete(mid pipe) shoot flames from the exhaust?

Winning 8 06-23-2006 04:38 AM

anything without cat will shoot flames, that is the best thing with rotary

branks 06-23-2006 04:56 AM

thats badass, thanks

flyboi1121 06-23-2006 11:21 AM

yes it does... it smells a lot tho.. i was at the tracks 2 days ago changing the psi on my rear tires and my eyes were burning lol

dastallion951 06-23-2006 09:50 PM

ya any midpipe with catback will shoot flames i believe, even the midpipe n stock exhaust should as well........

SiLVeRE8 06-23-2006 11:12 PM

my car shot flames out one side of the exhaust tip with stock cat and exhaust at high rpm shifting... dont know why but it was weird...my friend was following behind with his girlfriend at that time. :dunno:

your best bet is to do it with a midpipe. The stock cat can do it, but it's not good for it.

RotaryRider36 06-24-2006 09:20 AM

excellent, now to order a midpipe. My only concern is throwing a cell without the cat there.

mysql101 06-24-2006 10:34 AM

that was my problem too. but I ordered a canscan and a palm pilot. I can then reset the CEL anytime it comes on, plus read all my car's sensors and information. Can even graph afr's, fuel usage, etc.

since it's a palm, it can sit in the car all the time, and has instant on..

mmm.. sounds like another geeky device to add.. and maybe add sat navigation to a palm in the car too since the treo has software to do it, lol. That could be useful.

Not my best side I admit, but still not a bad picture of me, eh?

wow this is AWESOME..i want mine to shoot flames. but i am a big noob at this. so i have a few questions.

i want to get a brand new exaust decent pipe sieze nothing huge and a nice sound. i am hoping that it will shoot flames if i try to do it. what would you guys recomend.

also what this throwing out a cell or something could somebody give me more details on it and what could i do to avoid it.

and one last thing i read around the forums ppl say that it wouldnt hurt the engine if u dont over do it and i didnt hear this from anyone about their backpumper melting or pain going away.

thank you

Flame thrower kit
 
well...... you could always buy a flame thrower kit!
They have em in NZ.. Mag and Turbo is letting them go at a 100bucks.... that'd be abt 50USD
Plus with these you always have the option to turn them off etc.

Its illegal to use them on the roads tho......

These kits use unburned fuel to make the flame. The cat on the car should take care of this unburned fuel. There is nothing left to make a flame.
These aren't much more than a spark plug (you have to make a hole in the exhaust to insert this), ignition coil and some sort of trigger circuit to send voltage to the coil.

Need to upgrade the cabin filter to the Aldehyde, expensive but worth it. ;)
