Default exaust flames

I'm almost ashamed of posting this, don't want to be seen as rice boy or anything.

Here it goes.

I want to wire in a spark plug in the exaust pipe, to my defense this is done on my "to have fun with" car.

So far I have understood that I need to wire in a coil. This is not a problem. The problem is that if the coil is connected it will give a spark when first connected and that's it.

So I need some kind of automatic switch that opens and closes the cirucuit.
Has anyone tryed connecting something like this before?

Just use a normal s12 coil in the boot. Wire it up so that when you switch it on it basically reverts the wires going to the current coil to the one in the boot.

The advantage of that is that you get completely neat fuel down the exhaust.

or wire it to a variable vacum switch, so when you change gear it comes on automatically at say -10 on the std silvia gauge, the gauge max is -7, and mine idles at 6, so on over run (i.e change gear) it activates and then deactivates when back on tickover. i dontknow if its possible, but i cant see any reason why not tbh.

/me looks towards martin for this, as he always seems to be quite clued up on the stuff.

Could prob find something to do this.

However when the throttle is let off its activates the TPS switch which stops the ECU injecting fuel. I've found that with my mates S12 was to rev it up on idle, keep it floored, then switch the coils over and maybe pump the gas.

I was toying with the idea of a switch to the coil so it cuts the main spark and puts neat fuel down the exhaust but i think the look of the flame is shite although big. I think the flamer kit is fine and produces big yet nice yellow/ orange flames

Its a pain in the arse when you have to dip the clutch rev the tits out of it flick the switch and pump the throttle just to get a blue flame that sounds like a bunsen burner and in my experience in another s12 of using this method its a pain in the arse

Normal flamer kit, flick ya switch and back of the throttle BOOM

Here is the kit i have: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FLAMER-KIT-TUR...QQcmdZViewItem

don't be chavs you lot, get an aftermarket ecu and get who ever is mapping it to drop a bit more fuel in up top as you let of the throttle, mine spits flames and bangs on the limiter nearly every gearchange.
