the hell you cant! all my 7s shoot flames, i cant help it.
the first time i saw it was when i shifted out of 4th at night, i thought someone took a picture of the back of my car!
i have seen flames come out so far when turning and shifting i saw the flame it's self. but its more of a party trick then an amazing stunt, or anything.

^Not my car, but way cool!

The car will shoot flames when combustion isn't complete for some reason. If your ignition system can't keep up, for example. Or if you have low compression and you're dumping unburned fuel out the back.

When I first bought my car, it shot some pretty big fire, but as I did more and more maintenence to it, the size and frequency of the fireballs diminished. I guess it sucks cause flames are cool, but on the other hand I know the car runs better.

Might as well get sidetracked since this thread sucks anyway. Do you know why your car shoots out gray smoke when its revving down? Mine does the same thing and it worries me, pulls great, doesn't leak oil or coolant

I cannot take credit for that pic.
It was stolen from another thread in another section.
