Tuning and decats

Featured Replies

Right sorry to be a pain again but has anyone tuned and decatted their vrs to shoot huge flame, approximately to the legnth of about 4-5 ft ish? Ideally on an upshift 

Should be amusing trying to get that through an MOT

There would be secrets to that one 😉 I'd have it to be mapped into a button so it would only happen if the button is pressed to activate it 

You can buy flame kits on eBay. 

 

Oh boy, I think this guy might be on the wrong forum...

Before embarking on such a project, I would make a list of all the benefits and risks of such a modification.

Such as:-

 

Benefits:

Some people are likely to be impressed by it.

It might look pretty cool.

Tailgaters will back off sharpish.

 

Risks:

Some people are likely to be unimpressed with it.

It might look a bit stupid.

Accidental (or deliberate) activation may set someone else's car/property on fire.

Your car may catch on fire.

Pretty sure this is an MOT failure, and likely to be illegal.

Prosecution & Fine.

Increased fuel consumption.

May introduce reliability issues.

May possibly become a target for local plod, who might become determined to do you for something, if not the flamethrower exhaust.

 

Even if you do it, and then realise the issues and remove the system, being able to honestly say "I had a car that shot flames 4' out of the exhaust." with photos to prove it, is a pretty interesting conversation point.

If you can do it cheaply, and it's reverseable, what the hell?

But I'd strongly advise against using it when driving on public roads.

Can't you get an app to do that? :rolleyes:

 

You would have to change your username though :)
