exhaust question
The other night i was running my 1998 T/A and my friend noticed that my car shot a flame from the exhaust. Here are the list of mods if this will help with my question. Hooker Cat Back, EGR Removed, ZEX Wet kit 125 Shot, 373 Gear, **** Kit, K@N Race air filter, transmission cooler. Note i have not sprayed my car YET!!. Thanks for you help in this matter.

you shoot flames when your shifting? mine does the same thing, little blue flames. i think its because you go from full throttle to no throttle for a split second and unburnt feul from the power stroke escapes on the exhaust stroke and starts a mild fire (blue flame) and shoots out the exhaust.

He said he had a **** kit not a SHIFT kit. They're joking with him.
Possible a bad fuel solenoid on your wet kit? leaking excess fuel into your engine? just a thought.
