Default The Flame Thrower SS

This was taken in the dark to be more visible. I was told my car shot out flames, didn't really believe it and not like this. That blurb lit up the whole night sky, almost scared my passanger and I.

The first time I shot flames out my tailpipes like that I thought I blew something up! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Scared the bejeezus outa me.

When we got to the next stop, I asked the guy I was racing if he heard the BANG. He said...

"Doood! You shot flames out your pipes!"

I respond... "Did it look cool!?"

Him... "It was straight out of The Fast And The Furious!"

me... "Yeah? But did it look cool!?"

Yeah (12.8-12.9), but still ... a muffler (especially Hooker's) should have absorbed that, guess it is a free flowing muffler. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

All you need is Mac's,ORP,& a flow master Cat-back.Mix that with a slightly rich A/F ratio & a 3rd-4th <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" /> pull to 6000 RPM.Then engine brake. <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[shoot]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_guns.gif" />
Nice shutter-timing BTW.

Actually it was done with a camcorder, the image is a link to the video. I just used my video editing software and made that clip an image. The next clip shows a disappearing "ring" of fire. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />
