"Flamethrower" mod

For effect, I was looking at doing the mod that causes the exhaust to ignite. I have the basic idea down on how to do it, but was not totally clear on the process. Spark plugs inserted into pipes, switch dash, and wiring to battery. I would really like a more detailed description, if available. Thanks a lot in advance guys!

Well, you'll need a coil to boost the voltage to make a spark (12 V won't make much of a spark). Also you won't be able to hold the spark on for long, you'll start burning stuff up. Then you need to get something in your exaust that will burn. I've heard of various means, such as disconnecting a cylinder, running super rich, or running a fuel line to your exhaust. I don't know which of these will work though.

Ohh, and can't forget the fire extinguisher for when your exhaust pipe blows and you whole car is on fire. Purposely putting a spark by an open fuel line, lol can you say suicidal?
