I thought you wanted the S African type.. :lol:

You know, LPG powered gas burners under the doors. Designed to give hotfoot to any potential carjackers!
Legal over there too. A BMW option, I hear. :twisted:

but you have to fiddle with your carby, you have to run it richer so that you have unburnt gas in ur exhaust, :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

i was going to make it my self but how do u get the spark in the exhaust to fire rapidly.
you need a coil but with a contact point to close and open the circuit so the coil can charge and fire.
how do u do that.
i was thinking of using a gas stove inigtion system but get one that uses 12 volt dc.
i think that would be enough but i can't find anyone who sells them.
