very sad and chavy but cldn resist trying this! I love the sound of antilag with the added flames, so i was told if i switch igntion off then on as boost comes on the unburt fuel ignites on the manifold, didnt believe um!! tryed it, yea it works sounds gd and you get flames, dont know if this causes any damage? U can scare the sh*t outa people, my car gives off an ear drum shattering bang with big flames i now hold my head in shame

 

Oh dear

And no it probably doesn't do it much good

 

doesnt every1 like misfire with flames? i cld listen to rally cars misfiring allday long

 

On rally cars it's antilag and sposed to happen not a missfire. You're S2 will soon be sick if you do it too often

 

v.true, i want the thing to break down(not really) so i can rebuild the motor but at the mo it just keeps on going, 380mile+80mins of track time and it still works! Must be jap motor in there

 

lol

 

It's called backfiring mate, can be funny sometimes, me n my mate used to fook about doing it in our old 1.3 escorts, agree can shit people up, wouldn't do it in the turbo tho

 

wonder wat short of damage it causes? rev limiters use the same principle, its only the ignition being cut! I relise its stupid thing todo , as was once said curiousity(spelling?)killed the cat and the rsturbo!

 

I had the same thing when my distributor hall sensor was playing up .car cut out while i was on the motorway at speed then came bk to life big ass flame out the back with a massive bang lol i propper shat myself as i really didnt know what was wrong ...its all sorted now mind ..was funny looking bk at it now

 

pop bang and flames!

sounds like an 80s dj duo,

"pop-bang" & "flames"!

 

 

 

 

used to do it in my nova sr, with a cherry bomb on it, was

car soon went fooked

 

Make sure you don't turn the ignition off too far, if your steering lock comes on you'll know about it

 

Yeah sounds ace and my old RS used to pop out a 5 foot flame when doing it. BUT the force on the old Pistonys can't do them much good at all.

 

The steering lock only comes on with the key out anyway Mike.

 

dont drink diesel!

 

no it dont mine comes on with the key still in

Fit a cossie fuel pump and it pop n bang when you let off......... mine does

 

very sad

 

"lens a hand"

wot ? how can len be a hand???

oh your just crazy with this pop bang thing! wild.

 

My mate did this in his mums mk5 escort estate and the backbox split where the original weld woz!
Woz proper loud tho.

 

your mate split his mums backbox

did you see this?

 

they are the same part number as an RS turbo m8

 

A 2wd Cosworth Fuel Pump looks very similar to an ERST one but the 2wd Cosworth pump flows more fuel.

 

yep thats true,depends on the flow rate,even though the standard bosch s2 pump is good for 400bhp.
