So if you're running propane and turbos, why 7.5:1? That's real low.

25 lbs of boost ran it low becues i can turn up the boost more if i want cant though until i get better turbos .
I don't belive you. How much does you car weigh? Also, why in the hell are you using diesel turbos?
Oh yeah, and why would you think that people here don't like V8's?
EDIT: I forgot to tell you that I'm not a dickhead or anything, but I would just like a little more information about your car when it comes to running 9's is all.

But with 8.5 and propane you could still run your car at 25 psi

yes you could, but with lower compression you can cram more a/f charge into the engine w/o detonation. and the added mass of air/fuel gives more power than higher compression.
although i do agree that 25psi is not enough boost for 7.5:1, TURN IT UP!
