Perfectly normal, so enjoy it!
![]() It's just excess fuel being dumped into the hot headers and past the turbine housing ![]()

It's normal, as unburnt fuel hits the hot turbo and ignites.

It's normal, cool, and bound to piss off Al Gore.

thanks guys. my buddy was talking sh%^t about how his rs 60 boxter would piss all over my ancient 1983 930. we went out on a deserted road with some high speed sweepers and s turns last night. he followed me for 2 runs and couldn't even come close to challenging me to any corner. i followed him and blew past him in the esses. he was surprised to see flames out the exhaust .he was trying to out brake me but i never hit the brakes and was on the gas=on boost coming out of the turns. afterwards he didn't have much to say. all i said was not too bad for a 26 year old car. anyway thanks again.

The effect is really cool on a nice dark night. You can see the world light up in your rearview mirror.

It is completely normal on a 930. Furthermore, some folks spend lots of money to get the flames... you're already there.

i got the ruf's widened to 12" and run 315/35/17 on rear and 255/40/17 front. this is with stock spacers. i added the 2" to the inside with no clearance problems whatsoever. there's at least 3/4" clearance to the closest point. very happy with the handling and looks. i'll try to post some pics.

Less likely to shoot flames from a muffler if your AFR's are in spec.
With the Zork flames are more likely as the exit is very short and the Zork very hot.

Brian, I have headers and one of your straight through mufflers,and my car still won't blow flames. My AFRs are on the rich side of ok,so what gives? The car is twin-plugged as well,could that make a difference?
