I done some testing with Gas in the mk4 1.9tdi and at 160bhp it would smoke like a good one
we used some LPG in the inlet to clean up the burn an make a bit more power

Re: Does anyone install CNG anywhere? Can't find anyone to d
we had a CNG lorry in work
it has only a few places it can fill up in the uk
Unless... The lorry owner buys a CNG compressor. Just think, rig the gas meter at work, compress the gas out of the mains supply, run the lorry for nothing!
its some thing to do with Volvo i think they pay for it all ...

Re: turbo leak...could the LPG system be causing it?
that will be a easy one to find
look for it with some brake cleaner and the engine running spray on boost pipes an wait for the engine to rev up on its own
but only use a small abount of cleaner at a time
the manifold would be my start point

Re: Hemi
the srt8 engine i have has a lpg system on it and has caused no problems
the ls3 had wanted new valve seats after a few years and a tidy up on the head but that was no biggie
on my 300C Srt8 the engine Cut's down to a V4 when being used around town and all 8 come into play when you push it a bit
