Crazy2287 1,886 Posted March 29, 2013 Has anyone got a supplier yet for the LGI systems? Pretty keen on seeing something done with new era performance LPG technology but keep hitting brick walls when trying to source a supplier for the hardware. It's as simple as setting up an EFI system but the holders of the tech have got a lid on it which is really frustrating. We need someone on the inside. >.> <.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler06 266 Posted March 29, 2013 There is a place over here that i found. I was gonna go LGI on my Maverick with the TT351w but was gonna cost 7.5k but needed twin injector setup and they said it would only be around 5k on a single injection setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted March 29, 2013 Yeah, need twin: tank, pump and injectors for big power. But i'm not after installers, That i can source. i want the parts. injectors tank and pump. But in all seriousness installing yourself will be piss easy. But they wont sell the hardware to individuals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted April 1, 2013 surely it cant be that hard to make an EFI system work with LPI? all it is at the end of the day is a signal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 1, 2013 its not but LPI needs speical injectors and pump to stop the fuel freezing in the lines or turning gaseous in the lines. a megasquirt ECU will operated the injectors and pumps just like in an EFI setup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted April 1, 2013 ah so its more a parts supply issue? hrmmm, maybe look overseas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 1, 2013 Yeah, thinking about european import as the tech has been there a while. but can you imagine freight on a fkn gas tank?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted April 1, 2013 lol dont they use a normal tank? dude probably cheaper inc shipping than it would be over here anyway, i buy shit from germany all the time for the BM, it costs me less inc shipping than the equivilent parts on an EL XR8 do here. perfect example, lower control arm inc balljoint and bush, 80$ to my door, air flow meter, genuine bosch brand new, $225 delivered, it's insane. 1 Lord_fahrquhar reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XES 859 Posted April 1, 2013 Pretty sure that the tanks have pump in them to bring the gas up to the engine in a liquid form. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 1, 2013 correct. it's a particular design. The tank and pump are unique to the system Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted April 1, 2013 ahhhhhhhhhhh, how about going and nicking one out of an FG? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 1, 2013 ?? because they wont have it? It's a non factory option, you have to get your car retrofitted at a supported installer. It's different from gas vapor injection. http://www.australianlpgwarehouse.com.au/Products/Systems/JTG-Liquid-Injection.aspx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PH351 314 Posted April 1, 2013 Sweet, clicked that link and nearest installer for them is Rapidflow. I intended to take the LTD to them anyway. Scared to see what one of those systems would cost though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 1, 2013 If the morons would make it more available they might generate ALOT more support and get more sales. At the moment it's so tightly regulated they are losing money. DURRRP. 1 Lord_fahrquhar reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
THORNSPAWN 91 Posted April 1, 2013 FG LPI is liquid injection not gas vapour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 2, 2013 ???????? interesting.......! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trev Vaa 1,185 Posted April 2, 2013 was about to say, ford spent a shitload designing the LPI system for FGs. they even redesigned a motor around it, and its massively detuned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy2287 1,886 Posted April 2, 2013 Are there plenty of people using it?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord_fahrquhar 2,580 Posted April 3, 2013 A few. But given the govt attitude towards taxing lpg and installers short term profit at all costs, I think the industry will fall on its ass in the next few years. How many traditional cabs you see getting around these days, they're all hybrids. Without the base industry to support it it will fall in a heap. Just my 2c. Liquid injection is the shit, should allow to be home installed but certified by a licenced installer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
