Yeah, if you really wanna shoot flames that bad just buy a flamethrower kit. Or mod your car to make enough power and it will take care of the flames itself

Ok. Heres what I want you to do. Take one of the injectors out of one of your fuel rails. Primary or secondary, doesn't really matter. Take out your O2 sensor and put the injector in there. JB Weld it to make sure it doesn't move. From here, i'm going to need you to get some hose, your average garden hose should work. You need to connect it to the spot on the fuel rail where the injector was and attach it back to the injector. The mad crazy fireballz will make your car go faster than a Turbo II.

This should be all you need to make mad fyreballz.

Trust me. I'm a professional.

Tune the car poorly to run excessively rich and remove decel fuel cut.

Stock RX-7s tend to blow flames once the cats are removed because the stock ECU is often malfunctioning and the other emissions equipment has been removed. Without the airpump, ACV/anti-afterburn dumping air into the exhaust ports on decel, raw fuel enters the exhaust and burns.

So really, the only way to get flames is to slightly break your car.

Bring it to me and I'll do all the work required, for only $5000. That's a steal compared to what other people charge.
