On my TII. I've got no emissions, 3 inch from turbo to out the back with no cats. It'll blow some huge *** flames. Although I really need to re-do the exhaust cause when I had it done they fucked up and ran it out the passenger side (too many bends). I think I'm just gonna buy the corksport 3 inch single that goes out the driver side. Its got minimal bends and its mandrel bent. Plus it looks sweet.
What does removing the dashpots do?
How much was your custom exhaust from the turbo back out the pass. side.

Also, if it went out the pass. side, it would have less bends than the drivers side because the turbo is on the pass. side. Right?

out the driver's side has less bends, because you will notice that the y-pipe is in the middle of the car. This means that from the turbo to the y-pipe, the exhaust has been pointing towards the driver's side, so if you continue it straight out then the driver's side has fewer bends.

anyone cracked one of those badboys open? so many baffles..

The stock mufflers pretty much kill any chance of shooting flames.

with bad plugs you can look at the pipes and see bluish flames on like every rotation. with good plugs it will only usually happen close to redline. it also seems to do it more when it's hot out?

basically redline it and pump the gas between 7.5K RPM and 8K. That's how I do it. Anyone know what damage i'm doing to the car with the flames?

make sure u get it on tape. I need a vieo camera so bad. people tell me they are 2 to 3 feet long, but I don't know if those are the correct measurements. the loudre the backfire the bigger the flame i think. I have not seen my own flames( not willing to let anyone touch my car).
Enjoy

my ast. manager wanted me to shoot some flaimes so i sat there reving it and nothing happend then he was sitting there behind my car and all the sudden i shot a flaime that was around 6ft long and he jumped backwards and my manager came out cuz there was a big flash. then i had some cop sitting next to the place for like 30 min. but that was the biggest flaime ive ever shot.

Oh yea and my xar will shoot black smoke usualy if it doesnt shoot a flaime. any idea why it does this

I just explained to him, while making my PBA cards visible, lol, that its a rotary, my cat is shot, and im running rich, so it happens once in a while. But i finished the sentence before he got a chance to talk that i planning on fixing the problem that week.

he was cool and told me that he scared the **** out of him(it was a huge backfire).

so i got lucky
