FRS flame thrower!!

Evo 5 RS
ROFL. I'm not an overly massive fan of these I have to admit but you can't help but love the noise they put out
Ph1 Clio V6, Ph2 172
As above really. Seriouse question though, why did the rolling roader feel the need to rev the nuts off it after each run?
I guess the owner wanted to film it flaming

thats not the guy that does that. Thats what it does after every run.. 7 cars and 2 runs each on thr dyno day a went to and every car was rev'd the same way!
BMW E30 325iiiiii
That belongs to a fella up my way, hes has it a while now, think he has his own mapping company.
Tappd'd RS

Just looks wrong having flames popping on a shopping trolley. There was an Ultima yesterday popping 3 foot flames for several seconds, now that looked great

How do you get backfires like that? Wiki says some bullshit about malfunctions in internal combustion engine but there are no problems at all.. Is it because of a decat??

At a guess a shed load of unburnt fuel hitting hot exhaust?
Silver 182
That too.. but it wont just do it like that surely? I would guess its modification to the fuel injector and decat :S

My mates evo spits flames, and that was when he just had it mapped with the standard engine.. its just the unburnt petrol vapour combusting on the hot exhaust.. someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure its as simple as that

Hmm fare enough.
But what about some silly flames like really long and the ones that go on for quite awhile? I seen one like this long time ago on a scooby.. Is it possible to attach some sort of a kit that sprays petrol and ignites it?
TrackCar & F30 330d
Woah, they were pretty big flames, does sound good when its on Boooooooost
MY10 R35 GTR
Extreme whitburn
Turbos.
I'm no expert, but i thought especially for turbo cars that running rich (resulting in unburnt fuel) was preferable for safety, keeping the engine ok when at high boost.
Our race car does it when changing gear. I guess that is down to the ignition being briefly cut, so the fuel just gets dumped straight out.
Anyway, gotta love flames!

As well as running on the rich side most of the time.
