Default Is anyone using Propane

I have a friend with a N2O viper, and he uses propane and Nitrous. Its dyno proven for 100 RWT GAIN!!!. Is anyone else using this system?

anyone. else. I saw him cut 2/10 off his time with it... The slow buring of the propane eliminates detonation. Dyno graph is what is truely impressive.
