LPG fitting to an STI
Discussion
I'd call up Tinley Tech and ask them who they would use.
Otherwise I'd go to Jaymic. Yes, they are not local but take this from me. Finding good installers that have an LPG setup last for the long term is hard, much harder than you think. I know installers locally but they wouldn't convert to a standard I'm happy with. There is more to converting cars than just the kit. It's a similar reason why Clifford alarms got a bad rep.
How do I know? I used to install them myself and often diagnose other systems, often fixing simple mistakes and on occasions walking away from other issues. Even gas suppliers can't do them right, or rather find the right people.
Will converting it not invalidate your warranty?
How many miles do you plan to do a year? FWIW my E46 M3 does 24MPG average, going as low as 18MPG in pure town driving to 33MPG on a long run.

Thanks. Yes it will invalidate the engine warranty, I just prefer the extended range and better mileage. It gets rid of the eco-unfriendly bit, which to me is the only argument against it as the perfect car (for me obv):Otherwise I'd go to Jaymic. Yes, they are not local but take this from me.

Cheapest Sub 8-min Nurburgring time (2l JDM)
Four doors
Decent boot
Cheapest 6 pot breaks
Excellent reliability (before one puts an LPG kit on it obv :-) )
Arguably the most capable performance offroad for a 4x4 system, with a fully lockable diff
Tiny penis road presence (so I got it in black and took the spoiler and badgers off)
Perfect ;-)
