    Wherever you go make sure it's an LPG installer, not just a standard grease monkey. It could be running too rich, have bad leads, or some other issue. Get it checked out.

    On my VT supercharged i used to get 13.3L/100km highway and mid-20's if all city driving. I recently upgraded it to Vapour Injection and now get around 12.2L/100km highway, dunno about the city figures yet. Obviously if i only had a V6 Ecotec these figures would be slightly lower, or a V8 they'd be higher.

    For the V6 models - here is a % comparison of "normal" LPG usage over petrol:
    Old-school LPG mixer = 30-35% more than petrol (what i've found on my VL RB30 n/a, VR V6 then VT V6 s/c)
    Vapour Injection = 20-25% more than petrol (what i find on mt VT V6 s/c since upgrade)
    Liquid Injection = 10-15% more than petrol (i've been told only 5% is sales bulls--t)

    I'm not sure if these percentages would apply to the V8's, but your figure sounds way too high.
