mine does it, too. but didn't start until after i replaced the cat with a test pipe. its just running rich up top - not a bad 'problem' to have....

if i pull thru a toll plaza and then get on it on the exit, i'm sure i scare the hell out of the toll-takers with my little 'sonic boom' and flash of flame.....

Why is is white? It looks like steam, not flame.

Mine also routinely shoots meteors out when tracking the car hard. Scares the sh*t out of the Boxster and Miata weenies at TWS as I blow by and melt the numbers off their doors.

Although I thought dead on a/f was more in the 12-12.5 range?? Low 11's seem a bit too rich.

Wow! It looks so outrageous I'm tempted to think there's been some Photoshop enhancement..

Sorry rich everyone knows I dont post videos here anymore. Atleast not those kind of videos. I wouldnt be against posting a main server link though so here ya go.

btw this link will prolly be taking down soon I dont feel like opening myself up to crap again...so get the link save it on your comp and then you will have it from now on. Many people from this board already have it and check it every once in awhile for new videos.

Its the evo_srt_951 vid on the page
