A couple of mates have told me that sometimes my corsa gets a little flame out the exhaust when I'm flooring it, also I was out driving earlier chasing a starlet turbo on the dual carriage way, and he told me afterwards that it flamed when he was behind me! It doesnt happen very often, but when it does it gets some reactions!

Mine did, ALL the time, whatever gear, whatever revs, if I backed off, it spat.

It died shortly after
