If it's actually shooting flames out the intake, there HAS to be a CEL. Pull it and post it.

Since you are new it would best serve you to read to the FAQs in any forum you are in and search prior to posting. Chances are someone has already asked the same question you are.

Also check for correct ignition and mechanical timing. When was the last tune up you performed. Is the firing order correct?

Check your mechanical timing.

Done that plenty of times still no change

Give some background on what you've done so far, maintenance, mods, etc. The D15B2 doesn't come stock in that car so did you blow your other engine?

What did you do to it before it started doing this? Check to see if your spark plug wires are in order if you touched the wires or you left your car un attended where people could mess you you by switching the wires.

If it just started happening randomly than try to get a hold of a compression gauge and check compression in all cylinders to make sure that your intake valve isn't hanging open
