Do sr20s shoot fire balls? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Id just like to add that I dont think you can have a cat and shoot flames. The cat burns the excess or unburned (hydro carbons is it?) and it wont let the flames past the cat. So if you had a test pipe, with no other mods (from my thinkings) its possible to shoot flames... even with a geo metro <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

SR20Fastback is right about the cat burning unused fuel (hydrocarbon is one word, and you gas is the hydrocarbon).
I think that a flame could still get past the cat though if the fuel was rich enough.

Hey since you have it steeles can you anwser a quick question?

Can you actually use it as a two stage rev limiter? meaning that at a strip can you set it to hold a certain RPM even as you floor it then flip as switch as you launch?

Thanks

ok so the Bee*R does have 2 limiters built in.  one hich could be wired to a switch or something.  then the question becomes how to wire the switch so that your not fumbling with it at the light....  at the top of the clutch pedal travel so that when your fully out off the line it switches... that'll be fun to play with....

hmm. I was thinking about wiring it to a push button near the shifter. As your staging you just hold the button down. Light turns green, let go of clutch, let go of button. Seems like that would be the most effective way of doing it.

Tell us how is goes once you install it.

Edit: Luke, you might have an exhaust leak by the turbo which causes you to shoot out flames like crazy. It's really not supposed to happen as much as you say it does.

yeah I thought about one of those nitrous switches the ones that look like a phone cord.
