hey guys, just joined the forums, and am sad because i crashed a beast of a car i was working on in st albans... stupid light poles running infront of cars!
i just bought a ED Falcon with gas and was wondering if this would restrict me to doing any mods? nothing huge but the little things that add up in the end.
i was going to put a air pod but was told that cause the car is on gas i won't be able to because of some converter or something? is this true?

i don't know much about these LPG systems so thought this would be a good place ask...

Welcome aboard,

Well personally i say LPG is s**t but there are a few people out there that can get them cracking setup up on LPG best person to talk to would be a fellow called fuzion.

been wondering the same thing about modding LPG engines, as far as a supercharger goes i'd be interested in hearing some stories :).

you can get some decent LPG setups i am told for around $3000 for a performance LPG conversion, 9hp more performance then petrol it mentioned.

in terms of LPG conversions and performance.
you'd want to look at either:

LPG Injection
Gas Research
Impco

Pretty much the best 3 lowest restriction/high HP setups you're gunna find.


LPG won't really restrict u in terms of mods, but if you're really keen on performance you're best to select 1 fuel and stick to it.
Thats not to say u can't get good performance out of the dual fuel car, but u'r gunna be making a compromise when ur searching for the small extra bits of HP.
