To anyone with a flame kit

I don't know how they would work on a Fuel Injected Vehicle???

Fom my understanding you need to hook up a coil by your exhaust and weld some bungs into your pipes to fit spark plugs.

You rev it to 3000rpm then press a button. The button cuts spark to your engine and gives it to the coil out back. Your engine stops burning fuel and dumps it out the exhaust to get ignites by your sparkplug/coil setup out back..

There are two problems I see with this..

1) Your cats are going to get red hot catalyzing all the unburt fuel from your engine. Eventually you'll ruin them. So you have to cut the cats off..

2) I don't know how you would get a FI vehicle to cut out and dump that much fuel into the exhaust..

Maybe I'm way off base, but that's what I understand..

Q: Will the "Got Flames?" kit work on E.F.I. (electronic fuel injection) cars, trucks, or motorcycles ?
A: Yes and no. It will work on almost any E.F.I. car, truck, or motorcycle without a catalytic converter provided it does not have 4 or 6 cylinder engine ( motorcycles are exempt from this, but still can't have a catalytic converter). Cars or trucks with E.F.I. need to have an 8 cylinder engine or bigger to shoot flames. If you have an E.F.I. 4 or 6 cylinder engine with a turbo, N.O.S. , or major engine horsepower modifications the kit will work. If your car will not shoot flames using this basic kit you can still have some options ( see Mega Got Flames kit/plans on the Flame Kits page). Catalytic converters burn off gasses the motor doesn't burn therefore there is nothing to burn at the end of the tailpipes. You can remove the catalytic converter if you have one, but I do not recommend this as there are laws in every state that require you to have a properly working catalytic converter on your vehicle. There are fines for not meeting these laws.
