So much fire.. Why? Video
I have tuned one or two vehicles in my day but none of them have EVER had as much fire on decel as this car. It seems to just keep going and going until the car catches on fire. Any idea why its like that?

More power = more fuel, but it can be controlled better through the tune on decel.
All those big dollar, high hp cars and nobody has a fire extinguisher in the car???

SMH. Amateur hour.
30-40k car + 15-20k in mods and no $100 fire extinguisher.
Mod the exhaust to have the tips stick PAST the body panel...or at least a steel or aluminum heat plate.
Sure, Fast and Furious made flames look cool...til they're burning your car to the ground.

Running on meth/boost and rich will do that on the decel possibly a big cam with overlapping duration and running rich. Good to cool the pistons but you get back firing. I did notice my tips get super hot with my setup, never thought it would be as bad as this video, I may need to put a heat shield in just as a precaution.
