missed this post earlier
LPG injection is the correct term. A few people have done the bbq bottle and hose thing and got good results but it is never going to pass a roadworthy inspection like that for very obvious reasons. The correct way is a kit fitted by a automotive gas fitter. Running 5 to 20% lpg gives 10 to 20% more power and economy. For non automotive applications you can run up to 95% gas but not automotive. The catch is that the last price I heard was 3500

I have a friend with a toyota that runs a rather large turbo (td05) and has Methonal injection, it has an auto injection thingy when the boost goes over 14 psi it injects methonal into the air inlet before the turbo. Apparently works wonders to the acceleration will cause the wheels to break lose in 3rd gear!! Only thing is your supply of methonal
