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

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...
