Previa shouldn't be converted to LPG, we avoided them due to valve seat errosion.
As for the A8 I have converted plenty and they take it perfectly, fit a crap system or set it up badly and they will destroy an engine in no time.
From personal experience which is 5 years of working for one of the best installers in the country I would only advise Prins on anything and the newer BRC setup on a quite a lot of vehicles.
We fitted the Eurogas system to Berlingo's and Partners and the new model vans, BRC to the transits all for the congestion charge. All of these work very well but have been through a lot of testing to comply with emissions and main dealer warranty.
I have a friend with a M5 V8 on romano and its been nothing but bother, he is looking to sell to buy and another and convert that and I advised it went on Prins as it tends not to cause any problems that lead to the petrol ecu flagging up faults.
www.gastech.org.uk, if you call them speak to Keith or Stuart as they are both very experienced with converting anything from a Smart Car to a 600hp Hummer to a speedboat.
