Propane or Water injection
I am looking to give my truck a little more power and help since I tow almost all the time. I am leaning more towards a Propane injection just because it is a lot simpler to install and what not. However the Water is easier to maintain.
I am just looking for some input and if any one else is running or knows more about them?

hey i have heard good things about both. but i know propane has been around a lot longer so thats the way i would go. both are better than nitrous for your engine to.

Yea im thinking propane it gives more power then the water injection. I remember my dad having a propane run truck. the big benifit that water does it sounds like it lowers the EGT's more then propane. I would also be worried about the water freezing yea i know it is mixed with alcohol but they tend to stay separate so i wouldn't want my lines freezing.

Actually, water and alcohol attract STRONGLY. In fact they chemically bond. They won't separate. I run -20* windshield washer fluid in my meth injection setup on my truck. It is about 30% meth and cheap.
Check out the Devils Own water/alcohol injection. Easy to install.

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back on here October was a very busy month. My truck is an '05. It is sitting at stock as far as the motor and stuff like that go.
