LPG turbo

Hey everyone I'm shortly going to be fixing up the little rx and have decided lpg will be my daily juice. I have searched the forums etc, but have yet to find a desent post of a boosted lpg setup. Can anyone give me a little bit more infomation about tuning and setup of the carby to provided continuous fuel to the motor, ive heard of some little plumb back idea to solve the problem of boost stopping gas coming out of the carby, but havent actually seen it in practise.

Anyone with any opinion or suggestions about a boosted lpg setup please post!

thx ian

Search the forums for propane instead of LPG. That's what the yanks commonly refer to it as.

You might want to try ausrotary as well as there's most probably a few people there who have LPG.

Do a google search for 'automotive OR car LPG OR propane conversion', don't include my quotes. The first few links should lead you to a few good papers and guides on how to convert a standard carbureted vehicle to LPG. Add 'forum OR "message board"' and there should be at least one place dedicated to this. If not you may have to wade through the alternative fuels websites and messageboards.
