OK, I'll admit...I was being pretty harsh. Let me explain my opinion a little. Mods like this are designed to attract attention. They don't really enhance anything on the car...it doesn't make it look better or perform better. Their purpose is basically to scream LOOK AT ME DAMMIT. The intention is to get people to think/say "woah, that's so cool", but that's not the reaction you're going to get...at least not with this car. It's a little more acceptable on hot rods, because they are so custom that their very presence screams LOOK AT ME. This car...and any other mass-produced car...does not have that same presence. Trying to force it just makes people laugh at you, think you're an idiot, think you're a "ricer", etc. Basically, it will have the exact opposite effect you're looking for. You will be getting people's attention, but will not win over their hearts and minds and think you're captain awesome and get women to throw their panties at you. You're just going to get sneers, laughs, and rolled eyes. So, you're going to go through a lot of effort to install a system that will make people think you are an immature asshole.
If you do it naturally, at least you're getting performance out of it. Flames out the exhaust look cool...I'll admit. But doing it on purpose is like cheating...like a fake BOV or speaker turbo. Natural exhaust flames show that you have some serious shit going on under the hood. Unnatural (fake) flames just say you have a load of shit between your ears.
