Damn I'm regretting not getting that o/r x now lol. I guess I'm screwed until I fix that first. How abou that first mustang I linked, the yellow one. He doesn't have a 2 step it sounds like but I'm guessing it doesn't have cats either. Must be some other way.

I know it doesn't really answer the question but most cars I've seen shoot flames out do so during full throttle while shifting hard. Of course those cars have far more HP than your and my car combined. In my opinion it's not worth any amount of money if it's for show only, it's money that could be spent on real performance mods.

Here's an example. Although this was a bit more than I was looking for but it gets the point across. This guy shoots some nice ones out[url="http://youtu.be/smo7uAKHetY"]http://youtu.be/smo7uAKHetY[/ur]
Then there's this 5.0 with that 2step limiter. [url="http://youtu.be/9TEQ0X0wn1E"]http://youtu.be/9TEQ0X0wn1E[url]
So how do you install one of these? And what are the good ones to get?

If someone mentioned this I'm sorry I did not feel like reading it all.
But with some internet searching you will find some crazy bast*rds actually plumb tubing with a nozzle to pump raw fuel just upstream of spark plugs mounted near the tips.
Not saying you should do that, but it is what some do to get old school style flames, on modern computer controlled cars.

You can also get the car to dump fuel by turning it off while driving put the key back to the run position and pumping the gas a few times and recranking the car.
But of you still have cats and/or a chambered exhaust this will slowly blow them apart. I know this from experience

It used to be great fun to do in a tunnel with your buddies riding behind you!
