Running Propane for boost

I'm working on getting propane installed on my truck, and have decided on the Powershot2000 system. It's a proportional system, with the propane coming on at a preset boost level, and increasing with boost up to the maximum. It can be set up to increase hp/tq to the max, or you can back off a little, still get a huge increase, and be safe.
