Mine was $1600 plus $100 for a secondhand just tested tank. But I installed my own tank because I wanted it under floor in the wagon with no petrol tank as I have a d**k seat in the back for the kids. So mine cost -$300.

It is an OMVL system.

cheers

I just got my EF done onto gas.

It cost only $300 with the rebate, nice install too.

Gets around 400k per tank of gas :D

I recently bought an EBII sedan for $360 + freight, makes it about $600 so far, which has a 6mth old Airod (from memory) LPG system. It has a backfire vent line thingy, very snazzy.

I am considering putting the system in another car or selling it separately. If an installer was given this system uninstalled, how much labour on average would they charge to fit?

I think Barry got his done at south east lpg in rowville, he responded to a query i had about them a while back.
I got mine done there, its an impco system and i was $300 out of pocket after i got my $2000 back and i got a loaner car too.

I can't complain at all.....allthough i'm only just past my free 1000km tune but so far all is good ;)
