Default steam shooting

Does anyone know how to make steam shoot out of like the tailpipe or something? Like in the movie 2 Fast 2 Furious in the beginning when that import is pulling up and steam is shooting out, what is that called? and where can i get it?

It's called gay and you should have your keyboard smashed for asking such a question.

That is supposed to purge air from the nitrous system, but dumba$$es just use it to show off. Numb nuts in the movie probably vented half a tank.

There is no nitrous involved in that. Tell your freind to dump about a gallon of water in the engine. Just be sure to drain all the oil first. The steam dosen't look as cool with oil in it.[:-]
