Hi,
What are peoples view on LPG converted cars?
And does it effected the performance of the vechile??

Nick

 

A friend of mine has a 1.8 Petrol Connect Van on LPG and it's great.

Benni.

 

well converted cars, not enough to feel, poorly converted cars, feel a bit flat and shit.

Depends if youre buying a shonky old spi kit that was jammed on 10 ears ago, or planning on buying a modern multipoint kit fitted properly and well maintained.

There is a noticeable difference for instance between my dads shonky Ł100 rover 600 with a single point aftermarket install, and my vectra sri factory dual fuel on a w plate.

nothing to worry about on a daily hack in any case

 

My Audi is LPG

Very good and no noticable power lose on the 1.8 engine........ and at 41p per litre its a billy bargin

Getting the Skoda converted too

 

Even better if you want to build the engine specifically for LPG, as in never to run on petrol. LPG is approx 114 octane, so you can use increased Compression ratios and boost pressures when compared to petrol. I just wish there were more petrol stations stocking it here.

 

MINE RUNS ON LPG BEST MOD IVE EVER DONE

 

My xr4i was converted to LPG, a TEC 97 kit, expensive but great, performance was slower on lpg, until I put on a WOLF N, spark advance unit, it was then faster on LPG than petrol, by a noticeable amount.
