modification did so far, i threw the original cat and center box and replace it wirth a aftermarket center box. autoexe exhaust, bmc carbon dynamic airbox. to fit this airbox we modify our own air mass sensor adaptor unit, i am wondering if its the air or something because if the air+spark+fuel is correct it shouldn't spit fire (on normal engine).

Yup......its very normal for Rotary's to spit flames out the exhaust. Especially when u get rid of the CAT. If u watch enuff Best Motoring videos ud notice almost all rotary powered engines spitting out flames. My previous FD RX7 spit out 2-3 foot flames out the exhaust. Very nice...... I light up the unlit highway roads..... .........

There's nothing to be worried about !!! Even my Rx8 spits out flames from 1st-2nd and from 2nd-3rd.......... So much so, that ive scorched/melted the black exhaust housing cover on the rear bumper......... especially above the tip of my Fujita Engeneering exhaust........

OK thanks yehui.
Since bro lennon seconded.

Our engine rev so fast, it's very normal that our cars spit fire....... Pls remember that renesis is combusting 6 times in 2 rpm(one rotor) while piston only combusting one.....

Rear is okay.
Front you will need to change your calipers either to aftermarket or 6MT Caliper to fit.
