Default Fireball!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Evening all..sorry havent been on for a while been a bit busy rebuilding the engine...Got it done and run in but have a quick q&a for anyone in the know...Whilst out on a sedate drive tonite honest wasnt tonking it at all, my mate was following in his 200sx he noticed what he describes as sparks like the ones from grindin metal with an angle grinder from under the car on the overun and then a bluey orange fireball emerging from the exhaust, bit worried myself......the car is still running on time and perfect, boost is good oil pressure good and no orrible noises or smoke. spec on the car is walboro, yellow injectors, chip upgrade, full stainless with decat, 57i, ported and polished heads,15psi of boost......i will say the exhaust does have a small hole before the main backbox where it has ground out on the road once or twice but didnt on this occasion and rhe car is unmapped as its a 92/93 and have been told cant remap.......Any ideas chaps and chappesses as im stumped......Ta all sy
