Injection does but you have to pull emissions of it.Hell this one guys FD has all the emissions in it and he still throw flames when he wants to.He has a APEXI S-AFC to help out with it.

If you leave the emissions on it they won't be too noticeable.Jeff20B's page shows a FB ignition upgrade to solve the problem with 1st gens.

I`am used to it now, will have to fit a plate beneath the rear bumper, it`s starting to go all skew...

I dont see it as a problem, i`am proud of my little dragon !!Besides, not many can say their car does 9000 and throws flames...

and eats A3 Turbo Audi`s for lunch
