Flames! why do i get them?
at high speeds my 200sx holds flames out like a flame thrower! proper 2ft long ones as well for a good 3 seconds, wtf?
why does it happen?

I thought you meant when you lifted off - doing it under load is a different ballgame!
Whats the spec of the engine and what's it mapped on/for?

What are you planning to do with it? Overrun flames i'd expect with that spec - but under load i'd want to know more...

its all about the 5 pot
Every single s14/s14a with an exhaust, and no dumpvalve will pop huge flames, my old 400 bhp s14a spat a flame on every change, i swear it would set fire to some bugger if they get too close lolHave you been on SXOC? They are a decent bunch and will answer any questions, just dont tell em you drift corners or speed because they never do that as its illegal.

i got banned from the sxoc as they all said its easier to take the engine and gearbox out as one from an s13, i dissagreed as i found it easier to seperate them on mine.
but as bren i think it was said to do it all as one, everyone else jumped down my throat.
so i called them all cunts - and that was it lol

the thread i called someone ned flanders on and got banned on was started by a guy who was saying everytime he pulls up home his neighbour starts swearing and shouting at him for his ex pipe!
everyone started saying "ahh grow up and get an exhaust bung", "your a chav" (being a sxoc favourite too)
i got in and said if your neighbour actually does that he sounds like a prick so just carry on as you do but still keep revs low..... as i was the only one that went against the grain guess what? I GOT BANNED

as long as there are flames on over run it means theres fuel still going in and it can also cool the valves down, as mine was mapped for track they left it to over fuel on overrun for this reason

I've been banned from SXOC twice. Once for calling some one a cunt in jest and once for posting I picture of somebody sliding down a rainbow and at the bottom it said "Use drugs because in real life you can't slide down a rainbows".

MOST are. some are cool as with everywhere!
but never say you drive fast, never say you drift, never say you have an after market ex pipe thats louder than stock, never say you got turbo chatter, flames, stickers, timberlands, listen to hip hop, etc etc..... infact its pritty hard to live without being branded a chav or hooligan....
you have been warned
