King injection on mine g0t 425km out of the 61 useable litres. Very happy with the setup and greater range on the highway.

When it was on the dyno, we did a few runs on gas and petrol, and it is only down 1 KW on gas compared to BP ultimate 98, so im pretty happy with that.


Let's not forget that the LPG system will be strangling the car's performance on petrol as well, so the real performance loss will be MUCH more, particularly above 4000rpm.

To explain the better throttle response on petrol, remember that the petrol system meters and injects the fuel much closer to the engine than the LPG fuel system does.
