Change setting on the PFC and still no fire

My car has the fuel pump rewired with a relay in place. I have a full exhaust, Intake and IC.

The car runs fairly rich and sometimes I do get backfire when shifting slow.

I went into the PFC and changed the 3 A/C Rev from 1100 to 8100 which it what my limit is set to.

I was a little afraid to drive it at first in case my bumper caught on fire, but i did it slow and also getting on the car and i got no flame on decel.

Is there something wrong?

^ So you essentially removed your fuel cut on decereration so you can shoot flames?

And you are not happy because you did not get any flames

Also, wrong section.

Your exhaust needs to be hot to get flames.

I was driving the car for about 10 min and didnt notice anything. How long do you think i need to be driving until the exhaust is considered hot?

The car was at at 79C on the PFC

You need high rpm to get the exhaust hot. Just driving around does not get it hot enough. You need to do a few pulls.
