Flames?!?

Look this is what I wanted to do. I am in the process of running side exhaust out in fornt of my rear tires. On each side will be a dual Borla tip. But I want to make flames come out of it like the chop top 54 Mercury on "Gone In 60 Seconds." I know you can run spark plugs to it, but I ws wondering if you guys had any ideas about rigging it up. I have a straight exhaust and the hole are already cut and tapped in the pipe for the spark plugs.

Where are the hole located. They need to be remotely close to the end of the pipe for optimal flamage. I have heard you can just run another coil to each plug and have it switch operated. I would assume if your car runs rich it would be perfect but what if it runs lean? I dont know. If it is carbuerated you could use a manual choke. pull the choke and put the pedal to the floor = Flames galore.

I think you're gonna need a fuel supply for the effect you want. Maybe like a spray nozzle under pressure with a solenoid valve or something. The same switch that activates fuel supply can turn on a spark plug or glow plug to ignite the fuel. This probably will need to occur near the exhaust exit. Should make for interesting pyrotechnics. Not sure about legality (doubtful).

I've always wanted to have that out back, little injector and spark plug. It'd be real fun if a ricer pulled up.
