Anyone got an exhaust spitting fire?
Dont worry, I\'m not looking for exhaust flamethrower things out of fast and furious.
Does anyone have an exhaust system that spits out a little bit of fire on high rev shifts? I\'ve seen other cars do it, but not specifically on a 335. |

That happens when you have excess fuel getting into the exhaust system and igniting in the exhaust. Not really a good thing. But have fun with that

its not necessarily a good thing, the turbos are acting as if they are running already, always creating boost, and fire shoots out the back. I dont necessarily know the details of how this happens, was speaking about it the other day with my buddy that owns a shop (he outlined what happens).
