i shoot small flames only when i just start up and its cold. it runs so rich that it will backfire once or twice until its warm then its fine. yeah it only happens when letting off that gas fast or inbetween shifts.

Backfire: An explosion of prematurely ignited fuel or of unburned exhaust gases in an internal-combustion engine.

My friend's turbo 2.5RS shot flames out sometimes when he'd shift at high RPMs, and always shot out clouds of blake smoke between shifts. Now the car is sitting in a garage with bent rods though.

Mine has. My club went to carlisle right after I got my swap done a couple years ago. I was scared the car wasn't gonna make it there, we barely tested it. Halfway there, we went through some tunnels in the mountains. I said Ah what the hell,,,and down shifted into third and punched it. It was dusk, and I guess I shot out a huge flame. Everyone behind me shat. They were yellin at me on the radio.
Most of the time after that was when the car wasn't running right. |
