i was taking to a retarded a$$, crack sniffing idiot, who said he put an exhaust and an intake on his maxima, he also used a smaller belt so all the optional stuff like a/c wouldn't work. he said that when he rev the engine passed 8500 flames would shoot out the exhaust. i know what your thinking you can't rev pass 8500 because your rev limit is 8000. but he said that his mods gave him so much hp that he had to get costum guages, now his rev limit is 11000. i don't believe not one bit of what he was saying but he sounded so confident in what he was saying. so my question to you guys is can you even do this to a max?

The engine would probably tear itself apart at that RPM..

But anyways, you could do it. No cats and a turbo engine running a little rich would give you some nice flames when you shifted or let off the gas..

i asked to see it

he said some bull s#!t like he was at traffic light and he reved the engine to race someone and the car behind him cought fire. so he had to sell it to pay for the other car because the insurance company wouldn't pay for it. i don't believe a word of it. this guy is a jacka$$, i was going to give him a maxima.org card because he has a 2000 maxima(i saw it)but i don't want to talk to that a$$hole again
he was talking **** about lowering it and putting a bodykit on it, he said it was 2 inches off the ground and he never bottomed out and he lived in new york city at the time. i don't know if any of you has every been to n.y city but theres no way you can drive a car 2 inches off the ground there. too many bumps.

Next time, don't even waste the air to talk to a dip$$$$ like that.. he's a moron.
Indy cars have a hard time running 11000 rpm, let alone a Maxima!
the rev limiter on our cars is 6200 anyway (6700 on an SE)
there's more than enough points right there to make the guy the biggest liar I've heard in a while.

ask him if he put beans in his gas tank, otherwise you need a carb to get flames, and hey, a max is fuel injected (duh). at least that's how rods do it. he obviously smokes crack and is an idiot.

BS

Whenever I get on it with my 93 GXE and the rpm's build to red line, I'm always afraid that someday I'm gonna hear a big boom and oil and sh$$ will fly all over the windshield- little less 11K rpm's! Actually, most of the hot rods that get flames to spit out the a$$ side come from a special kit that they put on the car. They take a spark plug and actually install it in the exhaust pipe. Then they run a wire up from the distributor cap to a button on the dash that leads all the way back to the other spark plug in the back. When they push this button, it steals a spark from the distributor and sends it back to the exhaust which ignites the raw fuel left over from the piston that didn't fire.
