I did the original flamethrower - basically it cuts ignition and raw fuel is then sent to the exhaust system. This allows the whole exhaust to fill up and then bang....new muffler time as the end seam failed.
I made a unit with a set of spare injectors I had from a Honda, a bosche fuel pump from a VW Fox along with a set of spark plugs, two coils and some 555 timers. The injectors were 18" up the tail pipe with the spark plugs 12" up from the end. Worked well enough for me to determine it would be a safety hazard with 8' flames shooting out of the tailpipe. doing some post research I found they are illegal in most states.

ps, if you still plan on going ahead, make sure your tail pipe extends past the bumper or you will mess up the paint and your bumper as you let off the gas, the flames waft upward if there is still fuel present.
The problems we face today can not be addressed at the same level of intelligence we were at when we created them - Albert Einstein Or with the same level of $ - Me
