Default Gas conversion

Hi guys looking some advice. I bought myself a 2005 sti imprezza about 3 months ago I love the car but can't enjoy driving it as the fuel is killing me can't afford to drive it very often and when I do drive it like a old man. Just looking advice on a gas conversion would you guys recommend or is it a bad idea. Thanks.

Do it, just get a good quality conversion done by a reputable fitter. A prinns or brc.

Oh and don't tune the Impreza too much.

I've had my old Legacy converted. I know of others with neigh on 300hp Legacies on gas.

The Impreza will be fine and you get approx 200 miles to £30 worth of gas.
