Hi I have a Tii with straight thru exhaust (no cat, and a straight thru muff)

I just would like to shoot flames by hooking up a spark plug. I would like to know if theres some kinda write up fer this. thanks!

hmm RX-7s should shoot flames by themselves if you free up your exhaust. No flames coming out right now?

If you really want flames, try this: Romp on it in second gear, then lift your foot suddenly. It always worked with my old RX-2. Warning--you may be buying new mufflers. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif



Personally, I'd concentrate on making it faster. Flames optional. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif

flames are for ricers! unless its a natural thing....

there is a way to do it with a cable from the battery to a spark pucg mounted on the muffler. You'd need a switch too to control it (UNless you didn't like the person behind you) https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

There are companies out there who actually sell a kit..... it usually includes a Fuel injector of sorts a spark plug and the necessary cables....

me gay? no, i just wanna flame out these ****** tailgaiters whenever I want. I know I can shoot flames if I let off the gas fast on 2nd, but i wanna be able to do it anytime, like standing still, or on the freeway.

If you hook up the spark plug to the muff, won't it have to have a coil for continuous spark?

I was going to type something, then I decided not to bother

Actually, it is fairly easy to do this, if you really want to, drill an appropriate size hole in your exhuast tip, weld a spark plug in there, then run a wire to the battery with a momentary switch somewhere in the cockpit, fun for a show car, amusing for a street car, don't know if I would go through the trouble to do it myself though, for, along with being cheap, I am also horribly lazy

Rob x-7 07-02-2002 07:02 PM

To think they did this in the 50's, but it was actually cool then

RX7ryder 07-02-2002 08:01 PM

I thought you weren't gonna type anything Rob? ****. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/moon.gif
