I think the fireballs are a result of a too high f and f ratio.

agreed, you need nos to shoot flames.

you don't need nitrous to shoot flames...
Just need to run to much fuel and have it not burning right in the exhaust :)

the owner of the local graphics shop was planning on putting propane spray with a spark plug into his camero exhaust, I'll go get some v-tech stickers and see how he's doing with the project.

one of the chicks that has a turbo del sol and using the Rebic 5 system will dump sparks out her exhaust and she's only running 9-11 psi. I think its just because she has no cat honestly.

sparks... I've never seen that... I think you are referring to a backfire... my sohc vtec crx shoots fire out when it backfires and i have a hi-flo cat...
