Default LPG anyone...

Anyone have any experience running a classic Turbo 2000 or STI on LPG?

Seems like a good idea to me. 108 RON and 56p a litre.

take a look here:

Mine of knowledge.

Very good idea, mine will be getting LPG'd very soon. Dont fall into the illusion that the octane rating will mean your car makes more power - LPG has a lower calorific value than petrol meaning although its more resistant to detonation, it doesn't produce quite as much bang as petrol.

I think if correctly tuned your looking at about a 10-15bhp loss on a 300bhp impreza.

Also be aware your likely to need larger injectors or double injectors to supply 300bhp.
