LOL

Well, the reason that a car would shoot flames is the ignition of the leftover fuel in the exhaust system. Otherwise known as a backfire...

usually its a bad thing if you are shooting flames out your exhaust, unless you have a rotary or are utilizing a 2-step. which you arent.

Nothing that is good for your car. unless your are running a monster turbo setup with an open down pipe there is no way that your car is going to be tuned right and still make fire

you need a hole tapped in your tailpipe and a spark plug connected to a switch. or run open header with no exhaust. /thread

Do me a favor and drain the oil from your car, replace it with water and hold it WOT and take a video of the exhaust. I guarantee flames, just like you just got flamed for asking how to do this.

How old are you? I am sixteen and I have never met anyone that thinks having your car backfire is a good thing.

You see it on those old hot rod cars because they have alot of unburned fuel in the exhuast & no catalytic converters. Also they use diesel glow plugs not plain spark plugs. You might also keep in mind those cars have chromed steel bumpers not flimsy plastic that will melt when flames are applied...
