Re:Flames,and Back firing
 
so do those flamethrowe kits they sell disable your distributor that is in you engine bay and then activate the one hooked to your exhaust?

b/c my friend had a kit on his old carb truck. all he did to shoot flames was pull the choke and flip on the sparkplugs in his exhaust, he could get 4-5 foot flames... i dont think you would want to run your honda rich enuf to make flames like that.

I have seen vids of supras and other cars that just shoot flames when they shift, is it just from high compression ratios??

buy a cheap ignition coil... hook it up to a switch..... put a kill switch on your current ignition coil (make a switch box and put the 2 switches right next to each other)... wire the cheap coil to your spark plug on your exhaust... spark side of the plug must be aiming towards the top if you mount it on the bottom... gut your cat..... now warm up your engine a bit...... make sure theres no one behind you...
rev that bitch up real high... and press and hold both switches at the same time.... and happy fourth of july...
but could you not just get a coil and just wire it to 12v with a switch and just run your car rich and not need to shut the car off?

i was standing beside him when he was pulling out and he shot a flame out... people started to duck around us thinking it was a drive by

it's crazier in person =)
