Exaust Flames
Ive seen videos of RX7s shooting flames out of the exausts in motion??? How could this be done??? The video was of an FC on the highway and it shot flames and then took off??

Banned. I got OWNED!!!
open up the exhaust and run it rich. but no one will get to see the flames you are shooting, since they will be ahead of you, as you are not running to your full potential.

better safe than sorry, so its ok to run a little on the rich side.

you don't have to run it too rich for flames. More fuel than stock will be required, but you don't have to go ***** out and run a garden hose spraying gasoline onto your TB or anything

Put on a straight pipe, aftermarker front, mid, and muffler and you will be shooting all kinds of flames. The lean and rich thing isnt true... If you have fire like keeps burning type of flames that from too rich, but if you like that pop, with a long as flame, then thats the straight pipe

My RX-7 is stock only with a 3.5" straight exhaust behind the catalysts and i have shot flames from it. I think that the better the fuel the easier you get flames, if you have a straight pipe. I Sweden where i live in we drive on 98 octane, maybe in america you dont have so good fuel so it's harder to get flames?
