Ive seen this kit on a couple cars, but hot rodders have been doing this for years. Just takes a sparkplug mounted in the muffler and some way to wire it up to spark, then you just rev it a little and you get flames.

Haha, they did this with on Monster Garage a couple weeks ago. Just run a fuel line to the pipe and tap it in the when you hit the switch it sprays gas into your exhaust and the spark plug ignites it.

the just adding spark plugs to your exhaust part wont work on EFI cars, only on carbed cars.
In efi cars you have to run fuel lines ot the exhaust kinda gay if you ask me.

My car sends a 2 ft blue/orange flame out of each tailpipe when shifting above 6k. Sounds like a Bomb going off when I'm slamming gears. Chicks dig it.

Anyone with an offroad pipe and a car thats running a little rich can shoot flames shifting that high. Just have to be night time and following the car with a camera.

BBK O/R H-Pipe and Dynomax Race Bullets. Aside from being the loudest (and best sounding if i do say so myself) exhaust i've heard...i'm the only non-boosted car i've ever witnessed do it.

My friends Cobra with O/R H and flowstopper 40 series with dumps did the same thing back in HS. But that was a while back.

The flames are cool, but the SOUND it makes is amazing...scares the beJezzus out of everybody especially if you time it right under a bridge.

Probably. Not long, extended flames, but at night, have someone follow you while you beat on your car, like, a full throttle shift at about 6k. They should see a little blue flame.

$199.00?!? thats way too much. a reputable local place will install those kits for $170. that kit doesnt even come with everything you need for efi cars. i thought about putting one of those on my car a while back. it would look bad *** but i dunno if its worth the money.
