Hi all
Has anyone had their gen 3 converted to the new vapour injection system.I'm thinking of getting it done.I do mainly country kilometres.Just wondering if anyone has had problems.
My brother in law has been doing quite a few installs on Gen III's. Reckons he's getting pretty good results. Tried talking me into it at well. No thanks! Gas is for BBQ's!![]()
people say this all the time. theres nothing wrong with gas. ive herd of cars making more power on the vapor system. theres nothing wrong with saving a bit of cash. if ur gonna keep the car for a while do it if not then its not worth it. saying that i dont think id do it to my ss but thats just me.
VT_Acclm are you calling most of us sissy's?
Thanks for the replies.I think its around 4 thousand.I might wait a bit longer.![]()
The price of an SVI installation won't come down any time soon. $4000 is cheap - that's $2000 after federal rebate. The quicker you convert, the quicker you'll save. You'll recuperate the $2000 in 18 months or so if you're a 20,000km per year driver.
I also don't understand why gas has such a poor reputation with "rev-heads" - it is a high octane fuel (read: less sensitive to knock - force induction, anyone?), costs considerably less per litre compared to petrol, makes similar power (before forced induction) to petrol, and is environmentally friendly. Owning a performance car with an injected gas system is nothing to be ashamed of!

Injected CNG, LNG & LPG: The only way to go better!
My idea of silly is thinking you must run petrol instead of gas for a street car that never sees a race track or drag strip cause your worried about losing a minute bit of power even though you can halve your fuel bill. My conversion cost me 400 bucks after government paid me my 2 grand and i save about 50 bucks a week. My car is used to get me to work and for general duties and never put on a track but some guys think I'm silly for putting it on gas. If I want a fast car I'll go the whole hog and build me a real car with a big motor and run it on something even more potent than petrol but for a everyday driver gas suits me fine.
Just my opinion, sorry if you don't agree.
I think you can have the best of both worlds.I'm pretty sure most of the vapour injection systems are dual fuel.Cheers all
