can you run GRA throttle bodies with other systems or only with gra converter?
If you can what needs to be done, or is it a straight bolt on job and tune.

Thanks

You need the GRA under bonnet setup to get it altogether. about $1300-1900 fitted for a gra underbonnet kit

Are you saying that the GRA TB can'
t be fitted to other systems or that it can only be purchased as a full underbonnet kit?
Check out http://www.gasresearch.com.au, best thing to do might be to ask them.

you can fit a GRA t/b without the whole underbonnet kit.
there are slight differences with the T/B depending on the car it was made for, TPS/ISC setups etc.

the GRA t/b's use a simple converter, and the tuning is done via 3 different circuits on the throttle body itself.
there is a PDF file on the GRA website that discusses this (forced induction tuning guide)
the underbonnet kit simply supplies everything required for anyone that has a tank and lines.
some LPG setups may already have compatible converters and other bits so it would end up being cheaper.
