Default Flamer help

I've had a flamer kit fitted (thanks Cornelius) but i'm not getting any flames, the kit is working and i have a full decat (3 cats) but still with the resonator, what i was wondering was is there anything else i need to do to get flames.

Cheers in advance
Granby

You need to wire it to the same circuit as the neons and the sub-woofer.
Have you got your chav hat on correctly?
HTH



but seriously, I am sure you have a valid reason for fitting it, try a Max-Power type site for advice.

You probably know this, but you do know that the are illegal to use on the road. I also think that are illegal to be fitted to a car that is used on the road. Not sure on that last one, but I seem to remember a post about some jobsworth getting all excited about booking someone who had one of these...

Tis just a thought, just don't make it obvious that you have fitted one

I heard that it takes a bit of time to start working properly. 2-3 days of use perhaps???? When did you have it fitted? Don't know why this is the case but have read that somewhere

Just remember that if you ever come on here and grumble about fuel prices people are going to laugh at you

You may actually get better advice from somewhere like corsanet (I think thats the name). They are more likely to have experience at this. I know that there is one other member here that has a flamer kit, but he was given a lot of grief, not sure if he is still about (I forget his name).
