Why? Are flames that important that you would go through these possibly engine damaging steps to get them?

rotary engines are delicate to tuning so even a single detonation under boost can kill the motor, i will not help you destroy an engine and the responses so far speak for themselves.

maybe vipers didn't have an issue but that doesn't mean you might not. i would never try something like this on a new engine.

Don't do that to your car. Add on a straight pipe and drive around. You'll pop plenty of flames then.

Don't listen to ViperDude, he's a n00b.

I'm with Karack on this one, I refuse to assist you in what might inevitably cause the death of your motor.

Dude why dont you just try adding a spark plug to the tip of your exhaust with it hooked up to your battery, I heard that works. Better than trying to ruin your motor. Flamming isnt so special, I had flames comming from my FC because it wasn't perfectly tuned and it isnt a pretty picture because you spend more time and money trying to fix the problem. And I didnt even want flames, The flames came out because my NGK sparks (dont know how) but the tips blew open. so put it this way, a $7.00 part caused over $70 dollars to fix. neways just go by a flame kit.

Let me just say, I was kidding. I said it because when my rear rotor blew it was shotting flames every second because all that unburnt fuel was getting into the exhaust.

Now because the plugs arnt firing I cant see why it would be horrible for the engine. Carbon build up wont happen. But you could flood it out causing gas to get into the oil if your side seals and oil seals let the fuel pass by. You also will be causing alot more vibration then there should be which could wear your bearings more then you woud like. I would not do this.

its not a ricer thing to do. Ricer is buying a flame kit. Just wanting to see flames coming out of your exhaust for a few seconds is not rice.

Don't listen to ViperDude, he's a n00b.
you say this on what grounds? my post count? dont let it fool you. I know more then you think. I was kidding about the whole thing. I have worked on rotaries for many many many years.

Yeah because KIDDING on the INTERNET works well Why do you think you know so much, it was proven on Teamfc3s that you dont, and you no longer post there.

No ****. DO NOT disconnect the spark plug wires. Its the retarded equivalent to turning off a car with a piston motor running down the road and then turning it back on to make it backfire. Fun for the moment, damaging in the long run.

Yeah because adjusting timing makes the engine run more rich, or more lean.


It allows the fuel to burn more effeicently, and completely, not adding more fuel or less.


So many many many years would be 3 years? Have you ever rebuilt one? Ported one? Untill you have and made it last with your super dooper smarts, I have no respect for you or anything you say. The only thing you do to help people get their cars running is post common probs and it fixes it, they are too noobish to search. The rest of us get sick and tired of the posts, whiile you seem to thrive.

You really have no idea what your talkin about. I have rebuilt 2 different engines. One turbo and one n/a. The n/a I ported and is making 194rwhp with a s5 intake and a true CAI with 2.5" exhaust. My next n/a will be b-ported.

Thats why I asked, because I didn't know that you did, I have never seen pics, or anything, most people take pics of the motors they port, but I still don't won't listen to you, wheres the dyno of the car?!?! I kinda want to see this.

I guess as long as no one lets you tune their SAFC, or EMS, they should be ok, the motor should hold up.

Getting back on topic, all I did was remove emissions, and just blockoff plates and i shoot flames all the time. Actually, it gets old pretty fast. But whatever, it's your car.

You wernt really asking. You were being an ******* and trying to prove somthing that you can't.

Why should I let everyone know about my engines? Non of you want to know anyways. And how do you think im controling the fuel on the n/a engine? By an SAFC2. I used a wideband to tune it. Engine has just over 12K miles on it and still runs strong. The owner is waiting to get it on a dyno since its now parked for the winter.
