i'm not trying to be an *** at all, but i think you should have researched modifications for the evo before dumping all that cash on it. if you don't know much about evos, how did you come up with the list of mods you bought? i mean, you must know something if you bought all those parts...

something isn't adding up

It's called over run, it happens when the engine goes into vacuum suddenly(like during a shift). It' sucks fuel through system and it comes out of the pipe as a fire ball. On carburated engines it draws fuel through the idle control circuit. I'm not sure where it draws the fuel from on fuel injected motors but, ti's the same idea.

Look at every form of major auto racing and you will most likely see a fireball come out the exhaust when they lift off the gas. I guess they are all running pig rich and loosing mad power as well.

That is assuming it isn't just shooting a stream of flame out of the pipe at WOT. Then I don't know what to tell you.

Your list of mods is pretty extensive, so your tune may be the issue running very rich. What is your curent A/F ratio?

My guess is you have no cat and you're running a little rich at times. Basically that equates to the occasional flame thrower as unburned gas is exploding in the exhaust piping.

Most useless post.

Ever.




I'm sure that because the car shoots flames out the tailpipe and he doesn't know much about the car he will somehow crash it.

Maybe that's why people that don't KNOWWWWWW post on things called INTTERRNETZ FORRRUMZ asking QWESZTIONZ!?!?!?!?

Retard.

Its actually pooping horsepower out the tailpipe for other cars to pickup, because yours has an over abundence.
