    I would be happy to get 20L/100!

    I suspect the mixer on my car is worn out. If that proves to be the case ill simply rip it out and ho straight fuel with a long range tank.

    As it is running lpg is more expensive!

    I get about 18 L per 100 km on mine when I keep it on the highway. Like you say, driving it gently makes little difference. I think that's because doing 500 km at 80 save a bit that you then waste by blowing away a cruiser at the next set of lights. Excellent fun though
    Take it off road and into the dunes - Wow I did 117 km in the sand last week and shot off almost half a tank. I reckon that's almost down to 2 km per litre

    Well iv started the ball rolling, its sitting on a chassis dyno and its first power run on petrol was 107 RWKW.

    It has a LPG vapour injection system fitted 2 months ago and made nearly the same power on gas so im happy about that

    More testing throughout the day....

    Original air box out and a pod filter fitted, 135 RWKW’s very impressed.

    Yep, converter is stuffed. Replacing it so hopefully i can get a little more range out of the 115L lpg tank.

    That combined with a 78L sub tank in a few months im hoping for the kings share of 800km combined range, depending on the type of driving of course.

    Just asking mate, a 20kw gain is huge for just a filter but is that in a pod box or open to air? coz i want to make a snorkel and enclosed pod for my rig to see if that makes any difference.
