how to blow big flames on demand

after thinking for a while i recon you could press a button that disconects the ignition wire from the crank angle sensor so it just puts fuel in and when you take your finger off it will ignight the un burnt gass (blowwing you muffler apart.

2) idea . . . . have a xtra injector installed that when you push a button on decelleration it pours fuel in making it really rich causing a flame out the back.


will this work?

Yes.
However, a better idea is a single nitrous oxide fogger (from a dry shot kit) and fuel solenoid plumbed into your fuel system. You don't have to figure out how to mount an extra fuel rail. Cost of around $100.

why? i can throw big fire anytime i want with my T2. just accelerate past 4500rpm preferably in 3rd gear. let out and just barely rest your foot on the gas pedal, then boom! fire, and i didnt have to rig up some contraption to do it.

There is a difference to shooting a fireball, and spraying a 20 foot flame continously out the back. Shooting a fireball is cool, but flamethrowers out the back takes the cake. There is no comparison.

I shoot flames too. I can also inject straight gas whenever I want too, by leaving my nitrous bottles closed.

Now those are flames.... Just need to put in a pair of spark pkugs, and I'll have the ultimate.

Old coil, spark plug, and plug wire and you're set. You can just shut off the engine at WOT at high rpms and hit the switch, or find a way to get extra fuel into the engine or exhaust (make th engine run super-rich).

you "could" run a small injector into the tip of the exhaust pipe. it would be surrounded by very little oxygen. and would have the same effect just more impressive. of course you would need to make sure you are at some high rpms in order to get it AWAY from our car, just dont plumb and air into the exhaust and you are fine

No CAS means no fuel either.

Flame throwers??

You mean like this:

Flames

Flames brought to you by Soloracer and an untuned Wolf3d dumping fuel like mad...
I'm now running his wolf3d in my 10ae .. no more flames

You need full exhaust and a straight pipe. Gutted cats won't shoot flame, it'll just sound like ****.

If you only have gutted cats and run rich will you get flames or smoke that reakes of wasted unburnt gas?

I have a RB downpipe -> 22" 2.5" test-pipe (midpipe), no cats to stock catback, will the stock catback muffle my flames?

I have the stock exhaust with test pipe replacing my main cat. Pre cats are gutted and I can shoot some decent flames.

hehe, my RB turbo back exhaust shoots some pretty pansy flamse compared to what a midpipe does. It shoots them through the presilencer BUT they arent that big, maby an inch long and there for a tenth of a second. time to make a run to the exhaust shop for a mid pipe

I always shoot flames no need for any set up i just bring it up over 5 grand then let off and boom, always backfires no worries. My buddys have told me theve seen like a blue ball of flame shoot out sometimes which i think is cool. I have a straight pipe, to a single n1 exaust plus its an N/A

Running 2.5" open pipes after a RB header I can shoot 4' flames but they only last a tenth of a second as well. I have them on video and they're cool as hell but not long enough durration. Maybe with the street port it'll be better...


Also, I came up with the idea of a small injector in the exhaust tapped into the return fuel line (no need for extra pumps or lines) and then just ignite the mixture with the short flames we already get.

Flames out the exhaust = lean.
Lean = bye bye motor.
Bye-Bye motor = $$$$
$$$ = Working hard to fix the car and no beer money.
No beer money = No night life.
No night life = No *****.
So just leave the flaming **** to the batmobile.
