Spitting flames > N/a?
 

Would it be possible for Z's to spit flames NA? I've heard it's possible, but never seen it in action. Would be quite cool

1. Run rich
2. Get rid of any cats and internally baffled mufflers
3. Reverse everything since what you did was pretty pointless.

If you wanted it for just looks .... there are kits you can buy that go on your tailpipe for that ... this is just a example ... I wouldn't want anything like this for mine ...but to each their own.

A year before. Close enough :tup:

Its really about air intake to air output ratios as well as the speed it does it at to create the combustion.

I've done it very few times in my Z but its usually while I am running 1 and a half to 2 gallons of my racing 120 octane fuel, and going through GMR downshifting real high to make the exhaust actually backfire.

I had blown stock catalyzers and the FI 18" res CF CBE at the time. Although the sound has been much more aggressive and the exhaust pop is a lot louder, since the install of my BERK HFCs I no longer get the backfire like I had.

I also have a pair of LTAI's no one ever gets nor really speaks of too. I think I had a rare setup with how blown my catalyzers were and the air intake I had paired with the exhaust might have been the reason for why I was able to backfire at times, although it is not normal for N/A to be backfiring. Mind you my backfiring I speak of was a couple flame pops at most.

Turbo'd setups are much better for acquiring major backfire

Truth. I'll literally have 2-3 on my 30 minute drive to work. Usually only when I am having fun. =)
