Only high power cars do it, on the transiton from full throttle to snapped shut, so fuelling goes form lots to none, ans the exhaust gas flow slows slights as noless is coming out the neigne in to the exhaust and with the heat and extra fuel you can get flamage. It's just not gonna happen on a std 1.2, the propane kit will do though, but as above, it's ghey

I think the main problem your gonna have is the fact that ur engine is designed for economy not speed :rolleyes:

U might even struggle to get flames using a flamer kit :lol:

jesus christ, why do you want your car to spit flames?? Its an unhealthy sign that your engine is over fuelling! If you have a cat, you will be unable to "spit" flames since the cat would not alloy unburnt fuel to travel down the exahust, however, fitting a de-cat pipe and using a few techniques it would be possible to get some sort of flame from the exhaust, but it would be pitiful from a tiny engine lke yours. switching off the ignition whilst driving, switching back on and booting it would probably cause a flame. its a very shit thing to do though, and flamer kits are even worse. Concentrate on saving up for a 2.0 transplant

unburnt fuel ignited by the heat of the exhaust, possibly de-cated aswell & straight-thru system
