i wouldn't be too sure about that ... the system in my BA is italian made by OMVL ... some injectors are italian, some are Canadian
i have heard the wholesale price of the system is around $1800 ... i'm not too sure about that but the source said it was right ... retail fitted is over 4 grand, almost 4.5 grand
i'm sure there's money to be saved .. not sure tho how you'd go about it
it's not cheap to get an installers license .. i have a supervised gas fitters ticket, i can change parts already installed - like for like - but i can't legally instal
like so many installers have said, if i was licensed to instal and someone wanted me to verify what they'd installed themselves i would have to pull apart everything they'd done to be sure it met my and the authorities standards - that wouldn't be cheap |

direct conversion to au$ = $1090
fitted price for a 6cyl kit of theirs = au$3028 ... about $1300 cheaper than australia .. part of that would be taken up by inspection and certification fees |

Then there's ADR Emmissions testing that needs to be approved as well. |
yes well - the systems come from europe, the sprintgas system is italian

| how about order and collect all the parts we need and get the main commissioning done by an accredited installer like "ausdealer" did and get $2000 from Mr Costello to pay for it |

Good to see an injected system on an E-series though ... have only seen them on the newer vehicles. |
I've had gas injection for just over 3 years now, on my EB. They are around, but expensive so most ppl don't fork out the $$$ to get it done. Apparently my car took 10hrs install & tune. It's worth it tho!

10 hours would seem fairly reasonable.
When my previous wagon was installed it was in for 3 days so probably 7-8 hours. |

They had it in the workshop just on 2 days. When i got the car back, i was so relieved when i filled it up, how much change i had from $100 was great. On petrol, i wasn't getting much at all.

| When I first had gas in '99 it was as cheap as 12.9cpl so I filled up for $10 awesome. Within 3 months the price went up to 30cpl but still way cheaper than petrol. |
