Drill a hole in the exhaust pipe and install a spark plug there. Then wire up the spark plug to a push-button switch so that you can activate it in the cabin. It should light up the unburnt gases that goes out the exhaust.

That works well on older cars that run rich at idle, but not as well with late model effecient fuel injected catalytic convertor cars (unless they are modified).
There are kits available that inject propane into the tail pipe and use the spark plug method to ingite the gas. Those can blow some REAL FLAMES.

How about a front mounted flamethrower...It would work much better than beeping the horn.

"You cut me off!!" *tries to find horn but finds frontal mounted flame thrower switch instead* -WOOOSH- (flames go onto the car's gas tank and the car blows up) "oops."Originally posted by Dagamemnon@Apr 18 2004, 10:26 AM

You're right - they are 100% illegal. I wouldn't suggest doing that mod
And the program you saw it on was probably "Pimp my ride" hosted by Xzibit on MTV. They worked on an older mustang ('67? called 'Maddie Mustang') where they painted it blue, and installed a tv, dvd player, CD player, system... They redid the whole thing. The mustang looked great after they did it - the pony was ready to run again! However, they're all rice.

I did put a flame thrower exhaust on my 93 Flareside and it worked purty good even with the cats and fuel injection! This is what I did...
Get a Switch that when flipped turns off one side and turns on the other side and wire it into the positive side of the coil (going on memory here but I think it was the positive side

) so when flipped on it sends power to a second coil at the back of the car and turns off the engines coil this also gives all the pulses to the second coil to fire the spark plug in the exhaust. wire the coil in the back directly to the spark plug that you put in the exhaust. You may want to play with the distance that you put the spark plug in the end of the tailpipe but with my truck 7 or 8 inches was the sweet spot! (tailpipe in the truck was 4")
This doesn't produce the yellow flame that you see in movies or stuff but does make a real real hot BLUE flame about 3 to 5 feet long!!! when you want flames rev up the engine and flip the switch...hold your foot to the floor on the gas to get the flames (dumps gas into the engine and out the exhaust nicely vaporized too!) if you let off the gas to soon or don't hit the gas you can expect the biggest BANG that you will ever experience in your cars life.(one hell of a backfire!!) The trick here is to have the car at least coasting down the road so it wont stall out or to flip the switch back to the engine so the engine will stay running!
GOOD LUCK (and if you get in crap or burn yourself or your car your on your own!!) I accept no responsibility for your actions
