a straight through decat system will pop and that but im not sure on flames- you get a odd flame here and then but doubt you can constantly get a flame unless you fit a flamer

Would a car spit flames if it was running too rich?

By overfuelling massively! A saxo on standard management can't overfuel by ridiculous amounts for more than a fraction of a second!

Mine spits about 6 inch flames when revved to 7k and banged into gear.

But I know my cars fueling is a tad off. But it also pops like mad on the over run!

the flames are caused by unburned fuel getting into the exhuast then the heat of the exhaust ignites it.. crazy cam durations can cause it too!
