My car has a full 3 inch exhaust from the turbo and a K&N filter, stock bypass valve not vented. If I'm driving at around 1800-2200 RPM's and I tap the throttle and then lift off a majority of the time (if the exhaust is hot) I can get my car to pop a flame. It's pretty cool but is this normal ? My boost gauge reads -5Vac before I lift off the throttle(I never build boost). It's also a lot more easier in a lower gear to get my car to pop (I consider 2nd to be the easiest)if that matters. I remember once while driving on a mountain rode(touge) keeping it in 5th I would be able to get my car to pop a flame every time I lifted off the throttle. It was nayce...

2000 RPM's in 2nd, Lift Off, broom broom POP! broom broom.

Any one else's Supra do this?

ahhh the bang-bang mod. So much noise and if it is not aggressive enough, not alot of pressure build up.

as stated also. Make sure to have a fire extinguisher ready.

1100+ degree c post turbo makes for very intresting learning experience in what is combustibe at those tempratures.
