Default Flamer Kits

Thinking of putting a flamer kit on my car, do they flame when you let off or do you have to switch the flames on kind of thing?

And are they any good? I'll put a poll up to see

Yes, switch in dash, wire run down the car to the spare wheel well. Where, coil, ht lead, little black box thing etc are located. Sparker boss welded in to tail pipe and that's it. Bit gay now but still worth a laugh!

On mine it is just a kit as said above which has the option of turning the actual kit on or off which turns off the spark!

To get it to flame you just back off after you have floored it and watch your mirrors!

i think there good for a laugh, and i have the circuit for making the black box as well. in total its going to cost me about Ł5 for the black box to make, and about Ł15 for the coil and lead and plug. much cheaper then buying them from the shop

i recon i could do the control box for Ł15 all in mate, then you would need to source the coil and stuff.

i will be making one of these controls soon, so if it all goes to plan, which tbh it should, i will be able to do the control boexes for the above price.

either that if you can solder,i will give you the plans and parts list mate
