Anyone else do this on the regular? After my car has been set up like this for quite a while. I recently found out that on say 70% every downshift decel in second and third that reaches around 4k results in a flame out the exhaust. Small ones in second, about a foot in third. I dont have a go pro so I'm going off what the wife says in a car next to me.

I know I need a go pro. I have a poor quality video from far back of the small second gear ones. I go to 40 mph usually in third then downshift to second for a small pop. Up to 65 in fourth then downshift to third for a bigger one. I'll get video as soon as I can. For myself if anything

I've seen a few YouTube vids of people who are catless and shoot flames. Normal I think. Also badass.

I have heard of it happening but didnt know until my wife was behind me one day and I asked her, hey does it shoot a flame if I make it pop? To my extreme surprise she said yes. I said really!? How bout now? Did it again! I was stupid happy. Like a kid with a new toy happy lol. Here is the best I could do for a small example and its bright where it happened.

From what I'm aware of. You get the flames if you pop in a decat. No flames if you pop with a catted dp.

you can get near gopro quality with a yi cam, the yi lite is on par with a 2 year old gopro for way less money.

My wife got me a knockoff from target and it was supposed to be 1080p but everything was so fuzzy we took it back. Here is another screen grab from a far away vid.
