When you let got the throttle after reving.. Flame will come out. :)
Theorically speaking.. During gear shifting.. will produce fire..

just a caution and a few tips...

to get a longer lasting flames...u have to throttle ur car mebe up to 4k RPM and maintain it there....while the rpm stays then only u light the thing up....and after u got flames u floor ur throttle wide open to make it a big ones....i tried with my frens car who installed FireDragon...but one word of caution....sometimes the exhaust misfired...and when it does...lets just say i hope u r not anywhere near the tip....cos i was standing ard 4 feet from the car and the explosion had left my ear ringing for 2 days...im serious...u can damage ur ear....

ehh JL....have u figured out how to actually get sparks from the plugs...i've tried numerous times oredi ler...grounding properly by using the FireDragon diagrams...still cannot...one of my fren had mentioned that we need some electronic gadgets to change the signal of something then only we can get sparks from the plugs...i dunno if its true but the FireDragon does comes with a spark plug...a plug cable...an ignition coil and one small black box that connects the switch to the rest of the items....i think we need that thing ler...


btw
woit when ler u gonna do some DIY Day here in Klang Valley....wahh u keeping all the good stuffs in Penang onry ar?aiseyyy

Cheers

S-Flow still ok.

If Have Cat/Bullet.. Might have slight problem :)

 

[SataniC]

its the cat (meow meow)...u cannot get fire if u car is still fitted with a cat....all flame thrower kit that is being sold all over the world got a reminder tat u need to modify ur exhaust setup ie. throw away the cat....

misfire is different from flame throwing...misfire happens when :

1.one of ur spark plug is faulty
2.ur car is running super rich like mine...this unburnt fuel will sometimes get ignited by hot exhaust...thats y u see some high performance car tends to misfire a lot

flame throwing is something that u purposely built/do to make it works...

Cheers

Yeah.. 10 points for Satanic :)

Flame Thrower can cook you food if you are hungry too..
AND.. a work of advice. Make sure your muffler tip is CLEAR away from your bumpers.. If not.. It will melt lah...
