You don't even need to take the mufflers off. Just gut your cat/replace it with a straight pipe, and you're good to go.

click those links. $425 and you have new parts, flames, and a semi-reliable horsepower increase.

Just get a catless cat / test pipe off ebay for like $60. You will be poping out flames in a jiffy.

aftermarket BOV vented to the atmosphere will make it shoot a lot of flames.

flames are just a byproduct of unburnt air / fuel mix being propelled down a hot exhaust. if there are no emissions to burn it away it exits out the tail pipe and voila. flames.

there is no 'how' it just happens... c'mon.

you want flames? try searching for hot-rod exhaust flames where it's a kit to interupt your ignition to a single piston(dirty word) so it dumps alot more fuel into the exhaust and rerouts that ignition wire to a welded bung with a sparkplug in it about 6-12 inches from the exhaust tip. then you have 'flames' not the byproduct of performance...

I wait till mine floods.... then while waiting to start it I'll put a BIC lighter to the tailpipe & voila!! Flames... Then I'll go crank the motor & 3-4ft. flames out the back... quite dramatic but stupid... it won't go out by itself... I melted my shoe trying to get it to go out. I put in a fuel pump switch so no more flooding EVER!!!!

I was running catless a few years ago... I thought I was crazy driving home at night, seeing giant orange flashes behind me. Never thought it could have been flames.Then I saw the you-tube videos, went outside, had my gf watch and whala, I wasnt crazy afterall.

Mine doesn't do it. It just detonate a lot but no flames. Maybe is cause before the split, the diameter is reduced to 2.5 due to the Racing Beat mufflers... What you guys think?...

same here Joe, I have a racingbeat header, no cats, but a 3.0 exhaust set-up single. I get no flames.
the 3.0 exhaust was when I was turbo, didnt want to go exchange everything cuz I had enough headaches.

Don't know about what some of you guys are saying, I have a hollowed out precat 1 everything else is straight pipe to my stock exhaust (it's an ugly weld job done before I got it, and I don't have the money for exhaust yet) and I get no flames.

all you have to do is gut the cat and get a straight flowing exhaust. For really loud, obnoxious flames, go open headers.
