what sort of price would a garage charge me to fit this into mt car any ideas?

You'll struggle to find a garage to fit a system they haven't supplied IMHO, no reason not to DIY though?

This lot are a helpful bunch:

what sort of price am i looking at roughly to get a garage to do it, and also i have been told that the m20 engines dont like running on lpg and i will loose a lot of power, does any1 know if this is true??

[e301988325i]

Not true at all, M20's love LPG.

I am not reccomending this company, and have no experience of using them.

Total bulls**te! I've run a M20B25 on LPG for around 100,000 miles, and it's just as fast as any of the other E30s I have with the same engine.

does any body have any thoughts on this kit before i take the plunge

The tank you want is the 630mm x 225mm internal toroidal. Fits in an E30 wheel well perfectly, and only lifts the floor about 10mm.

sorry to thread hijack - but does anyone have pics of thier inlet manifold with the injectors installed - im looking to see how where the holes are drilled for the sequential injectors.

Thanks

brian how many litres will that hold?
what do you make of the rest of the kit?
any were better to buy a diy set up you know of?

[Brianmoooore]

Tank sizes are in the link you gave. 630 x 225 is 53 litres actual capacity, so will hold 42.4 litres if set up correctly (80%), although you can go another 4 litres without any problems in practice.
I know nothing about this kit, other than it is cheaper than most. You might find some feedback on the LPG forums.
