I agree it could work properly. Its the cost that is my problem. Until I can get the grant, things will stop until then.

Thanks Prydey. I only went to Graham West for advice. They were very keen on pushing me to go the SVI route, which is something I wasnt prepared to fork out for especially since I wasnt eligable for the grant.

I will re-look at the options again in another year.

Well I got the LPG tank removed. Sad to see it go. But on the up side, it has made my car lighter without the dead weight, I have quicker take offs and a bit more suspension travel.

Got the car retuned for some finer tuning too. Found out that the higher rev range was leaning out so Bruce added some more fuel to the top en fuel mapping. PLus tweaked the lower end are of the tune to assist me in the take offs. MUCH smoother now and is more responsive. No extra power was attained, just more driveability.

Now that I have the LPG system removed, which authority do I need to speak to to let them know that this has happened?
