Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Race Pipe

i was thinking about getting a race pipe and header and install it with my 2.5" exhaust i want to know if this has better horsepower gains and how to by pass the O2 sensors before and after the cat? not to metion it will be nice to have fire out of the exhaust cause of high commpression

I's don'ts thinks yous wills gets fires outs ofs thes exhausts.

i think i will and my friend thinks i will cause the high compression and and when i'm in lift and let off all the extra gas will cause a flame and there will be no cat to catch it and hondas do it all the time when they hit v-tec and they dont have nearly as high compression as the GTS

i think thats a special exhaust FAST AND FURIOUS man

You need a Turbocharger to spew fire.

VTEC is one word.

ok dont worry about the fire the questions are what do i need for the o2 sensers so the CEL dont come on and it runs good and what will the horsepower gains be?

Keep them where they are now. Either have the new exhaust welded after the second sensor, or have the exhaust shop weld new bungs into the larger piping and buy a bigger cat.

thats where my exhaust is welded at now i dont want a cat plus i will be doing this when i buy my header maybe in like as month or 2

Well your O2 sensors will go ballistic if you don't have a cat, you would have to get an O2 sensor simulator thingy.

I don't see why you want to remove the cat, it's not going to do anything beneficial for your NA car...

i want the FIRE!!!!

do the spark plug mod. i heard/seen some bikers with that mod. it creates a small explosion with flames coming out of their exhausts

google it or something.

i think ur friends have been watching 2 much fast and the furious, i dont think any NA Honda can spit out fire onless it has one of this spark things on there mufler, its nearly imposible, you have to have so much power coming out of ur engine to produce that flame, there was a post on this early wen i first joined the forums, ill try to search on it, but i have never heard or seen a regular honda do that onless its Turbocharge to the max

Only cars I have seen spit fire (without gay flame thrower mods) are rally cars. And there compression ratios are much higher than ours.

yeah like 15 and shit, ur cars are only 11

i remember posting on this before, because i saw 3 240 zx on the highway and they keep spiting fire and i posted on this forums how to do that but i lost the link. sorry but nah i dont think our cars can do that with out super bost

The only way your car can "Shoot Fire" out of the exaust is if it's Turbo'ed. The unburnt gas gets shot through the Turbo and doesn't burn, after that the heat in the exaust makes it burn.
