can any1 recommend a good flamer kit,seen one on a rb5 a few times at meets and looks like great fun ,are they easy to fit yourself and how exactly do they work?

thanks

 

They work by mounting a spark plug in the end of your exhaust which ignites the exces fuel vapour coming from your engine. The spark plug is hooked up to a box of electronics inside the car that make a continuos spark at the plug.

They are faily easy to install yourself if you are firly handy with the spanners, drills and a small bit or wiring. IF not then I think SCperformance? (try a search) would fit them for you

They are availbale on ebay and in the for sale section sometimes


Oh and by the way , be prepared for all the tw*ts the will add replys calling you a muppet and that you a chav etc for wanting one, they have a habbit of contributing complete boll*x which is of no help at all to the original question.

 

Ebay seams to be about then best place.

 

this sounds stupid, but if you have a turbo car, just get a centre decat for about £90 and it will flame without having to use the spark gap generator and all the gubbins that go with it when you release the throttle m8...

 

I have a full de-cat system and induction kit, have never had POPS, BANGS or FLAMES

Just fitted a set a megan headers and it still dont.

Not that im bothered, just that everyone says this will happen and it never has.

if you try ebay dont buy the cheap ones they can knacker your engine coz the way the coil works we now have a ssc one which is really good they cost about £100 tho

Andy[I agree Andy - mine to and no flames, but a few pops and bangs!!]

 

I get small flames plenty of pops and bangs with a full decat and cone filter fitted.

Do fancy a flame kit though

Whats the point?
If your that bothered get yourself a descent ECU with an anti lag function.
That will make you go faster too instead of just looking like a tart.

 

can any1 recommend a good flamer kit
are they easy to fit
how exactly do they work


were the questions

not that he's bothered to reply to anyone

 

This aint all true, if you want to know the truth then its the flamer kits that are not road legal, just imagine someone walking behind your car and it boots out a flame, love to see the insurance claim for that one!
And yes they are for chavs

Tony

 

lucky us essex boys live near the home of the CHAVS......

 

My decat system gives pops and bangs, does that mean I'm getting flames out too? Can't tell as I'm sitting at he wrong end of the car to see

 

as for the original questions...

http://www.flamerkits.co.uk/

this site will tell you all you need to know

 

yep you will most likely get some small flames.......

 

you need a DV

 

I have a DV. Forge VTA

Probably got VD too.

 

The ebay ones work perfectly.. i must have fitted 10 of them...

Definately the cheapest way to do it, get the box from ebay, coil lead and switch from halfords and a nut from car spares... local garage will need to weld in the nut but will prob cost £5 (usually does)

I get loads of stick for fitting these for mates, BUT!!! everyone who sees it loves it!

As for a flamer kit damaging an engine, PMSL!!!!! it ignites unburnt fuel which is usually a waste gas that joins the outside air.... the only way it could harm your engine is if the flames that are emmitted are so large that they ingulfe (sp) the car with flames and burnt the car to the floor and melting the cam covers (best thing i could come up with)

Jesus.. i fitted neon's to my best mates scoob... if you wanna start a flame thread...
Start a 'i want Neon's thread'

Rob

 

Neons?
Whats the point?
Theyre for tarts too.

 

[QUOTE=69WRX]I have a DV. Forge VTA

Probably got VD too.[/I have a DV, full de-cat etc and still no flames, just pops and occassionally a bang - when the wife lets me!!!!!!!]

 

Can you not see the spark plug at the end of the tail pipe? if no where does it go on the zorst system?

 

mine is on top of the tail pipe behind the bumper

you drill a hole in the pipe then weld a nut over the hole and screw the plug in place
its only the end bit of the plug thats in the tail-pipe and you'd only see it if you looked down the tail-pipe from a very close distance which is very un-advisable ;-)

 

if you cut the ignition wire like most flamer kit do you'll be killing the turbo in the end.
Ever thought off the heat difference between burned fuel and just fuel, Not to mention the risk off having a backfire. I have had a flamer kitt myself untill a friend of mine had a backfire wich killed his Turbo. The flamer kit costed me a new rear bumper because the misses enjoyed playing with it on every car meeting

 

Where do people fit the spark plug exactly in the rear box ?? just coming to fitting mine and am not sure where abouts would give the best results ???

 

THANKS ALL,

Hope ur happy now dazza ,just came back to look for replys had some work 2 do for the last day or so!!!

I drive a WR1 and have heard about putting a de-cat mid section but there seem to be a few differences of opiniononder2: ,i dont think its in my intrest to start going for re-maps etc either,any 1 out there with an 04 sti with ppp who has a centre decat and has the desired effect???

I assume that would be nearest to what the WR1 runs at,will also try extreme scoobies for any reccomendations,

THANKS AGAIN ALL,especially dazza lol

 

in the end tip of the exhaust should do the trick. Just behind the rearbumper so you won't see it

 

cheers matey,
had a good look,dont think ill go down the centre de-cat line,seems alot of people getting stopped for noise and no cats at the mo

 

id like one to engulf all the ***$ in novas, and rs and bloody boxsters that keep havin a go!!

 

Are backfires damaging then as Im always bouncing mine off the limiter and backfiring it?

Just a thought but a good old backfire never harmed an engine in my experience
