Who's got flames?

[ILLSMOQ]

I was driving home after dark and a vette wanted to play. It was a new or newer vette and he had no idea that I was packin paxton heat. I dusted him a few times. My car shoots flames when I run it up the in the rpms and let off the throttle...this guy almost fell out of his car he was so excited to see the fire balls he was practicley jumping out his window saying Flames!!!! Flames!!!

haha good times....anyone else have flames out the side pipes?

 

[HI-NOS-Viper]

Haha I love it, especially that it was a Vette owner. Always good to suprise them not having a clue what you have under the hood. Its good to give them no chance. I hear the popping pretty loud on de-acceleration but of course I can never see it. I am not sure if its actually shooting out flames though. I do know that SC Vipers because of the more fuel more likely shoot out flames. I need to get someone to video me driving to see if mine does.

 

[BigBadViper]

I got flames out the back between shifts prior to the tune up.

 

[J&R3xV10]

I get flames from my 94 all the time and I can see them from the truck if I am really trying. High rev and then letting it come down with back pressure. I love my Borla for just that reason.

if you are shooting flames, you will know it...you can see the light out of the corner of your eye through the side windows...it's very noticable and bright with my car.

Yea at high RPMs during the evening, its fun lighting up the road! It's extremely bright from my car, especially when flames come out of both sides. It’s crazy!

 

[treesnake]

Oh yeah, it's great. I was rolling along and here comes a bike.. The guy has the bike matching jacket etc., you know the type... Anyway, we square off at about thirty mph. The guy is just off my right rear quarter when I shifted from second to third... I saw the familiar " blueish photo flash" in my mirror. I see the bikes headlights pointing almost straight down he hit the brakes so hard when I shot flames out the side...



It's a very enlightning experience... I love it

You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Soooooooo, to anyone that has just confessed to acts against their fellow community members I sentence you to four sessions of sensitivity training.

Is this the look ?

Is this the look ?

are you running a higher octane gas to produce those flames?

 

[Dimitrios]

yes! went on a exotic car cruise and there are videos of me shooting 3 foot flames out the sides. actually a corvette guy was pointing at my side pipes yelling flames flames while we were crusin...

also one night ACR steve and i were cruzin down to the city and apparently flames came out the side of my car and scared a mini van and he swirved like he thought i was gona blow up! thats what steve said..

 

[Camfab]

No that looks like the work of refried beans accompanied by some highly accelerated foreign particulate burn off.

I also get a loud pop once in a while, which makes people run for cover. But would love to shoot flames. Do you guys run boosted cars??? When I bought my car, the guy gave me a flame-throwing kit. I figured that it wasn’t for me to screw sparkplugs in to my exhaust. What should I do to get that effect naturally?

 

[J&R3xV10]

well in my case its just Borla exahust. I am sure that having either s/c or nos would certainly help but its not needed. Just run your RPMs up in 2nd or 3rd gear then let off the gas without putting the clutch in. It won't happen every time though. well not for me anyway. you may already do it and just not notice. It helps if its darker.

Remove the Cats.....

Yes you need to remove the cats...

Mine shot flames before I put the S/C on it. just run it up to redline like you are going to shift and then let off the throttle.....POP and fire balls. with the S/C the fire balls are much easier to produce

[HI-NOS-Viper]

Do you need to remove all 4 cats or just the 2 large? My two cats have been removed.

 

[ILLSMOQ]

they all have to go.

 

[Dimitrios]

NO CATS!!! be careful what you say guys!!! there a **** on here from FL that is against NO CATS n the environment..i forget his name..im surprised he's not on here yet to run his mouth yet.

I was out the other night and ran my buddy Shawn's 03' vert and I was pulling away from him in 2nd and 3rd when I decided to let off at high RPM He said flames shot out 6 feet and singed his left cheek as he went by me and thats all he and his passenger Jedd could talk about for the rest of the night with big grins on so it's just not the side exit snakes and I must contribute it to not having cats on a 3' Borla system. I deffinately don't wanna be doing that on the

 

[Dustman]

question answered .......... sorry

 

[Nine Ball]

Paxton with high-flow cats on mine. Shoots blue flames between shifts at night.

 

[treesnake]

The cars with aftermarket exhaust systems might be shooting flames and not know it.

Like ILLSMOQ and the others said, you run your car up to redline and let off slightly before you shift. Most guys are looking straight ahead when at redline (hopefully...) so they aren't looking in the mirror and can't see the flames.

I didn't know it until some one told me. Now I can control it....
