How to shoot flames?
I was wondering how people with REX's shoot flames I know that a large single turbo with no cat will do it.
If I have 99 spec turbo's with a catco cat and a racing beat dual cat back will it be possible.Or will I have to put on a m/p?

You need a free flowing exhaust (so no cats). Thats really it honostly. If you're looking for the 1 foot flames then you'll need an aftermarket ecu so you can richen up your mixture a bit. That'll help some. I dont see the point. Burns the bumper and cops pull you over because they have no idea what your car just did.

Yes you can shoot flames with a stock cat, DP, stock ECU and a cat-back even. Not intentionally by design or planning in my case, but yes. Mainly on decel from high rpm lifting off full throttle when the mix is still rich.

Im running a resonated MP, HKS DP, and RB exhaust. No boost creep at all. Car is non-sequential, so at about 4k the boost spikes to 10.5psi for less than a second, the drops right to 10.
Best way to get flames are riding it all the way to redline with 100% throttle, then completely letting off and leaving it in gear still. Thats pretty much the only time mine flames. I dont see the point though. I guess its kinda cool, but it just turns my tips black.

How do I made boost?
I have a downpipe, stock cat (i think, if its not stock its nothing special), and pfs cat-back and NO other mods, my car shoots flames anytime i redline and let off (free rev or between shifts while driving)

lol... that's a spark plug and spark plug wire. Not a hose. It's to make sure that any gas coming out the exhaust lights on fire... guess that guy really likes to put on a show.

Thats awesome guys.. I want to throw 3 ft flames just like the movie that came out with supra, rx7,s2000, and some nissan i've never heard of.. and go down to florida and try to jump over a bridge.. I guess thats "in" thing to do??
I'll be happy to answer that...
M/P = Mid pipe (straight pipe to replace the stock main cat)
PFC = Apexi Power FC (stand alone computer, fully programable, replaces stock ECU)

Its a cult thing, really though, it shouldn't be dawged especially because didn't Rx7club.com promote that in a bad *** video made in Korea, and almost every single rx7 practicing the art of throwing flames and fireballs.
