thanks for clearing that up for me. i am trying to learn as much as possible about tuning before i turbo. i thought that it was the other way around (boy i feel smart), meaning the lower the number the leaner you are.

i have seen you around on other forums, and wondering if you have tried the propane injection yet ( as it was mentioned on another site). i was wondering if it was worth all the headache.

sorry, not trying to hijack your post. just curious.

No problem at all. I''ve not worked with the propane yet. I was thinking of getting into it since it''s cheaper than gasoline now. The kits are around 1000.00 depending on the power level. I know that Propane has alot more octane than regular fuel which helps us on boosted vehicle''s. It would be around 110octane if you compare it to gas. (approximatly)
Timing is different as is several other things.
Apparently from what the other guy said you do the opposite with Propane... you start lean and work to rich. A overly rich propane setup glow''s the intake valves and they warp.
I''m not a expert on this but I''d love to try some on my Nissan turbo car and learn some about how it works!
The guy on the other board seems to have worked with it quite a bit. You might want to ask him some questions about it if your interested.
