the old coil and spark plug trick wont work on fuel injection. there is no real way to get them running rich enough. with a carb u can richin it up and not have to detach plug wires or any thing. i know this cause i tried and i used to have a 61 coupe deville that shot flames 15 feet. i wish my crx couold but all i get is stupid lil back fire ***** when i shift.

Obviously you don't have an AFC.

I give you that link with the understanding that the product will not be purchased by anyone on this board, except for ricky. He likes that rice stuff.

ya, all you need is a spark plug in ther and fuel.. my buddy did it on his old gmc truck and pulled his choke for more fuel, got 3-5ft flames.

when i hook my zdyne up i might run it real rich and put a torch near my exhaust tip to see what happens, i will have side exit exhaust by that time so it should be interesting .. now thats a rice burner haha, or you could do propane injection like on the monster garage mustang.

my car shoots flames when i shift or so a friend told me. it happens when your car runs too rich in between shifts. when im hitting full boost and then i shift the bov lets all the presure out and causes the car to run rich.

If your running a catalytic converter you can't have pure gas dump down your exhaust and shoot flames out the exhaust.

Holly ---- this entire topic is ------ gay... I can see it now.. "How do I get my dimond plate floor board to fall off at high speed"... Or better yet "which stand alone fuel managment system actually speaks to me"..

I am deeply disappointed with the whole thing.. I must now proceed to wash my eyes out.. they feel dirty..
