The engine had 40.000 Mi when I installed LPG. In Belgium, the cost of unlead fuel is 47 BeF, the cost of LPG is 15 BeF : You see the economical interest ! I'm fully satisfy with the conversion but It is very important to ask to a qualified installator to do the work. The only problem is the autonomy : the tank replace the spare wheel and the autonomy is limited to 200 Mi. I think that for a turbocharged engine, you need an Lpi system which is more sophisticated but more expensive.
