Ive seen alot regarding propane injection.. to sum it up it lets you run more boost on pump and is about 3 bucks to fill up (5lb bottle). Some GN guys have had over 100 passes on one bottle. Im really thiniing of trying it out, Ill have my friend and his dad help me install it. The son (GTA) is going to run it also, either that or acohol. What is everyones opinions?



here is a link and some info on the kit.. it looks very apealing..

First and foremost, get your car running first. You are doing a whole lot to your car. The more you do, the more chances for error you have, and the harder it will be to find your problem. Get the car running and tuned first, and then consider it. I, personally like the idea of water injection better. Either way, you can't run much boost on the twins anyway, so you may as well just wait till you go single.

Ken (the traction control guy) was talking about this for some time. Maybe ask him. I think his name is Luv94rx7 on here.

Haven't heard anything come of it. Some kicked the idea around but ended up going with water injection and more boost instead

well the biggest problem i have found from talking with people that have ran it is its just not very accurate to tune.

geez.. staba guy in his pride and joy.. Im getting there, dont get the PFC till the 17th (Waiting for him to get them in from Japan on the 15th.)



Danny, Im not doing "that" much



I got the midpipe in today.. 3 in around and polished ss like all other exaust parts.. when the car broke it only had a Apexi GT Spec catback.. when its back up itll have:



full exaust (cb,mp,dp)

intake (pettit - 75$ )

Street port

Walbro 255lph pump and either new rail and 1600's or just 1200's (just for now.. all i need for the stockers)

Im working on a NPR FMIC and custom piping..



Should be a litte different.. guess i wont guess with propane.. ill go with water instead.. and when im single



Thanks Danny,



Josh
