Bizzare i know

 

But as a lot of you know , i just recently bought 200SX, ive upgraded to a larger turbo T28RS and odds n sods since i bought it and shes now running a cool calm 301rwhp

 

Now heres the good bit

Its powered by LPG

 

I was very wary when i was looking at the car, but for the price and all the mods already done it was a steal

 

Ive been using it since the weekend and clocked up 217 miles , filled the tank up which cost me £23.50 when you work out petrol is now £5 ish a gallon its working out im doing nearly 50 miles to a 5'vers worth of LPG and i do have a heavy right foot

 

the sytem is made by BRC called the Sequential FAST system, it has its own ECU the piggy backs onto the standard one and changes the cars timings to suit LPG, unlike the usual LPG conversions where you lose power. the power loss is minimal and possibly going to get more power in the future after its been mapped further, at the moment im between 1 and 2 BHP down compared to Super Unleaded (Car runs on both)

 

Not only that but because its an LPG converted car Transport For London (TFL) has made the car exempt from the congestion charge

 

So im quids in all round and still have a very quick car

 

Might be worth considering if you do high mileage

 

John

How much for the conversion? Do they have a website?

Ive got reciepts for suppy & fit @ £1750.. sounds expensive but when i work out i done nearly £4k last year on fuel alone .. and if you work in london and have to go into the congestion zone thats £40 a week or £2000 ish a year so the savings are plenty .

Nick it realy is a worth while system, the car isnt running lean and no det problems, ive had her dyno'd emisions checks the lot and they all came back with better resuls than it did on petrol, no hesitation or nothing

 

There must be a downside .. but while im saving myself 3-4k a year im not concerned :rofl:
