I had the header+presilencer with the stock catback, and it never had flames with that.
so if you get the RB header and presilencer combo you cannot shoot flames? i thought it was backwards

i wouldnt risk blowing the motor so that you can shoot flames

I've got a cone filter, the full RB N/A setup on my car and with 87 gas and no premix it shoots flames with a loud bang when I suddenly close the throttle at WOT and high RPM's (like when I shift).

I've done the TB mod, have an RB header, test pipe (no cat), dual bomz mufflers with 2.5" piping all the way through. No flames here That's good in my opinion, I dont want any more unneeded attention. After removing my cat and throwing in the test pipe I had my friend rev it up to 7500 to see if there would be any flames, none. Just some unburnt fuel smoke coming out after he let off at 7500

Hmm...I might try a slightly less premix mixture, but not too much. I can't afford to damage the car.

not very loud, the RB setup is known to quite and at the same time, have a very distinct noticable exhaust note, You want to be noticed, strieght pipe it, Your friends will be able to hear you a mile away, im not kidding. I made the HUGE mistake of strieght piping 3" from the turbo back, retardedy loud and Retardedly big flames, im talkin 4' campfires spewing out of my drivers side single. Anyone know a good cheap way to quiet it down?
