flaming tail pipe! Options

[captainpyro1]

ok, so pretty much i want a good foot flame out the back of my muffler.

i know a little about propane muffler injection, and pretty much the common sense that goes with it
i also know that they sell a kit that cuts the ignition to the engine, and you run unburnt raw fuel through your exhaust, producing a huge flame, espically if your turbod. but doing this will kill your seals, pretty much all of them. -( yeah i know change your oil if you do this.... NO)

my second thought is use a windshield wiper pump and do a liquid stream with a "taser" style ignition.

or just do propane.....

and the old school hot rods just used their carb, and ran rich and burn the unburn fuel with a spark plug in the tail pipe.


umm so my question actually is... has anyone done this on a fuel injected car? im guessing propane is the way to go, but how, like what would the injector look like... etc.....

AutoLoc makes a flamethrower kit, it's basically a controlled spark plug where you can hit the button anytime you want flame. I saw it on a MAzda RX-7 on YouTube, and no offense, but except for show, it looks retarded.

Link? Because I highly doubt you saw what you think you did. If its the silver FD than its his 2 step and thats what occurs when you combine a nasty rotary, a 2 step and straight exhaust. The video has the guy jump out and try to blow out the flame. Every single response talks about how gay flame kits are and yet nobody is smart enough to realize how rotaries actually work. 2 step dumps the extra fuel through which in turn burns up and makes the fireball. The intention of a 2 step however, is not meant to be a flame kit. It is designed to have a proper launch for drag racing.

Most 7s will throw a fireball if they are tuned a bit rich. Works great as well for that guy who is tailgating the hell out of you.



EDIT: Is it this FD.
