I want to be able to shoot flames on command. Is there any way to do it? Can I adjust the S-AFC some how?



Thanks

You can't have a cat if you want to shoot flames. usually an open muffler with no car helps but i've seen people shoot flames with a stock muffler and not cats (vosko)

Apparently my TII shoots gigantic flames with only a few added chassis grounds and the mods in my sig.

The more you try to shoot flames, the less it will happen.

once you get the exhaust hot (20-30minutes on the freeway) you should see fire. my t2 always has shot huge fireballs (when it hasnt had a cat)

my NA used to shoot flames like crazy when i'd hit the gas after decelerating in gear on the highway... that was no cats, no acv/air pump, stock ecu and stock engine... it ran pretty rich.



if you can get it to dump some fuel on deceleration you can make it shoot flames when you get back on it, I suspect my injectors leaked at the time which helped get some fuel to accumulate.

I can't shoot flames, and I've tried. No cats, headers, no acv, no airpump, stock cat back. If I get on it real hard, then let off gas, I just make a huge smoke cloud of burnt oil. Are flames still possible with the bad oil control rings?

UniqueTII has shot quite a few so yes. You know theres 5 other lanes around you, and your only guide is two plumes of fire!
