either gut your catalytic converters, or put a test pipe in there... then buy a header (or down pipe if your turbo)... and your good to go! it should only do it under a load @ high rpms.... but ive been able to do it while redlining it at a standstill!! good luck

Spray the back of your car with CRC brakleen. Ignite. Stand back.

ya it is a worthless thread... and its a worthless thing to try to do too... if your car isn't powerful enough to do it on its own then its ricey as all hell.
Mine does it cuz i ran custom zost from the header. I have several other mods too :-D
The only use for this is when people ride your ***... or if u wanna get arrested...

Don't diss on him, it's his car and that Diss is definetly not needed.
There are plenty of reasons to throw a V8 into an rx-7. Granted I'd never do it because that's what puts the R in RX-7, but there are definetly some advantages of having pistons in there and having that power with a great handling car is not something i'd laugh at.
Matt

Just because you don't like v8's in rx-7's don't call people retarded. i'm not saying this to be your mother but getting warned by mods makes you think(personal expirence). i guess i'm your pre-warning if you get one. think about what you type before you type it.

Their are 2 different ways. 1) port your engine as big as you can get headers and no cat and drive it hard with a rich running carb! 2) put a spark plug in you exhaust, hook it up to a coil, a switch and flame on, just like fast and furious . . .

why is throwing flames so cool??? I thought the cool aspect of the car was if it was fast and you could beat people??? Why the hell are there so many of these pointless threads??? I'm sorry but if you did a search you would have found about 198,765,323 posts on how to make my car shoot flames. I'm trying to get it not to shoot flames because if it is it means your running pig rich and wasting gas and causing other damage. Do yourself and your car a favor and get your car tuned correctly and have it run better and save on gas mileage
