Hello,
I not an expert by any means but I have some ideas I'll throw down. First one-check wiring for loose connections, loose connections will draw more amps. Two-run one coil in the backside but I'm not sure if thats even feasable. Three- bump up to a larger amperage alternator I have a feeling that the alternator is not able to keep up with three coils. Four- get a larger amp battery for more reserve power. And last-If you are wired to cut power from the engines coil to put raw fuel into the exhaust the timer may not be set right. Good luck!!!

Did you read the instructions? The way the flame throwers work is to cut off ignition to your engine, so that you have enough raw fuel in the pipes. This is normal for this kit. Its not an afterburner.

Kids stuff. Does it make the car faster? The answer is no, so what is the point?

i believe this kit burns off the excess fuel not burned by the engine.

go to the FAQs for info about it.

uhhhhhhhh

So you hit the switch.....and you turn on 2 additional 12v coils.

Do you bother you add a bigger alternator and battery?

You are just sucking all the power of the car.
