Does your Evo shoot fire ***** during daily driving??

I was told by a friend driving behind me that I shot a fireball from my exhaust today. Thats pretty crazy. I am going to try to get a pic/video of it and post soon.

Does anyone else have reports of their car doing the same? Who else is shooting fireballs during daily driving?

you can tune the car to make it do it if its something you like to do, just retard timing in a few blocks where its at higher rpm and low load. I dont know if that would be recommended though

I spend to much money on gas as it is to waste it shooting fire out the tailpipe.

Only on WOT. It's also a must if you spray Methanol and runs a test-pipe. :}

Is this the fast and furious section? Does all your cars have neons and body kits as well? Stop wasteing fuel and get your cars tuned for god sakes

How do people do this? I heard people running a test pipe this happens all the time. I have a test pipe, and lots of mods with an aggressive tune, not sure if I shoot out fire ***** or not. But my friend during the day said when I shifted black smoke shot out. Not sure if there was a fire ball before that though.
