Spitting Flames
 

Still kinda new to everything on the car, but my buddy has a turboed mazda speed 6 and when he puts 100 oct in, his car spits flames. Now the question, can our Z's do that or am I just making myself look stupid on the forums!:ughdance:

The latter.

i believe there was a person that has done it before with their Z but still it's a no

Flames out the tailpipe are caused by a rich AFR which leads to hot, unburned fuel igniting when it hits air. You would, at the very least, have to remove the catalytic converter(s). Re-tuning, to run rich, might be required also.

Not sure I would label it as stupid but it's definitely not something I would recommend - especially for a DD.

that explosion in the exhaust is very bad for the engine.

Mine spits plenty of flames.... but I have testpipes and turbos.

Not nearly as stupid as somebody paying actual money for a "speed" version of any mazda lol.

Yes :twocents:



But if you really want to look stupid, put some blast pipes on there, y0! ;)

that made me get wet... sooo hawwwwttttt

lol thanks guys!

In short, yes our Z can easily do that. But why would you? The retarded AF mixture will only screw up the car.

Turbo is an exception though.

Save the Earth,don't do this...

I had a Mazdaspeed 6. You can go to hell.

I don't like them but,
