k guys i read that a LONG time ago and cannot find the thread... pretty much ill have a RB header/collector into a test pipe into a cat back system... i like the RP 50mm exhaust mostly because of the flamage and price... but if the RB can still throw flames i would go with that for a couple of hundred more... so is it true can you throw flames with that setup... please dont "flame" pun intended im trying to find out some info before i order my exhaust next week

thanks in advance
christopher

 

I dont know why you couldn't.... The main flame killer is a cataltyic converter, not a mufler. Though bafled muflers might impede it a small bit, I still can shoot flames with my flowmaster 40 which is baffled (i think).

 

Yes it is possible to shoot flames with an RB catback. It would probably be easier with something like some N1s though.

 

no

 

i see... thats why i decided on the rp 5mm cat back... my buddy had that when i videod his flames and they were huge... thanks guys

 

or you coudl take a look at my post about the 5 speed manual conversion. there is a pic that is prime for flame throwing. LOL scared the hell out of my mom one day when i told her to stand behind the liscence plate and look at the exhaust.

You are wrong my friend, you just need straight pipes instead of cats.

Matt

 

i still think im gonna go with the rp 50mm exhaust.. anybody besides rx7rage have pics of flames with this lol

 

do you have a link to a pic of shooting flames

 

yes somebody posted it in a thread i found... i hope they didnt mean to say it was theirs cause thats wrong... anyway my friend rx7 rage and i took out to the highway bout 2am and filmed this... this is only a snapshot of the footage... youll have to ask him for the vid if he can host it... anyhow that was a fun night

 

Search and ye will find.

Matt, also there is a good thread out there with videos of what you're looking for, do a search for exhaust clips i think and you'll find it. some pretty fun movies are on that thread.

Matt

 

and that was the rp50 mm catback with no cats... was a turbo too

 

ive searched last week about this and found a killer pic i just wanted to see some new ones

 

i could shoot flame with the stock colector, rb downpipe, and c/s single mufferler.
but not any more after i have the RB header 2to1 installed.

 

YOU ALL READ HIS QUESTION WRONG.

I responded to his question. IT IS NOT TRUE THAT YOU CAN'T SHOOT FLAMES. I MYSELF HAVE RB MUFFLERS. I HAVE SHOT FLAMES A BAZILLION TIMES.

 

Just curious as to why "shooting flames' would be a consideration when choosing mufflers????

Before I set the decel cut on the haltech, my car farted fire a bit too much for my liking and i have RB mufflers!!

 

sorry guess i did read it wrong. but you don't need to get all huffy and puffy about it. it's not like i was being an ******* when i said it.

lol you need to lighten up,
Matt

 

 

marlaman,

Sorry bout that.

 

I will also confirm. I have Racing Beat's header, pre-silenced, and cat-back. With a fuel map that has been leaned out by my S-AFC I still spit flames, ESPECIALLY if I lay it on the fuel cut in a drift, I've been told it is a spectacle to be seen.

 

well i was more going towards budget.... but after these replies ill have to ask one more... how much better is the RB cat back than the rp 50mm?

 

Much better. I have experience with both. RB wins.
