i had my range rover done a few weeks ago, went for the propper multi point SGI system from Landi.

cost two and a half grand for a propper certified install, and so far im really pleased with it.

lpg is 48p per litre round here so in money terms im getting about 36mpg.

no noticable loss of power actually the only difference im noticing is when i go to fill up on fuel, you got to a different pump and its cheaper.
Sounds very interesting. It's fine seemingly as long as you do the miles and keep the car long enough to justify the 2.5K expense.

That, coupled with the inconvenience of needing to know where you can fill up as not everywhere has it.

The other thing you can do to improve things further is to instal a big storage tank at home, in which case you can buy it in bulk for under 30p a litre or so (and only need to visit petrol stations on long trips).
Cool! A fuel storage depot at home. Ready for the nuclear attack, totally self sufficient! I would grow vegetables in the garden as well. smilewink
