G'day from SE Australia, I opened an LPG conversion shop here earlier this year and am in a small town of several thousand folks.
The Feds here offer a $2000 rebate to anyone converting a private vehicle to LPG, basic conversions are around $2500 and sequential vapour injection around $4500 so interest is strong and business is good. LPG is available in most towns here and is half the price of petrol/ gasoline.
We have EPA reg's to consider as anything after '03 needs an approved kit much like your CARB standards, usually sequential vapour injection
This town is currently being piped for reticulated natural gas and most homes and businesses should be connected over the next two years, I like to keep on top of things and will be getting qualified for CNG conversions before then
I've found that a business in my state is trialling the PHIL and seeking approval to sell them here, is there anything I should know about them, drawbacks, problems alternatives etc?
Given the price and incentives for LPG, is CNG even worth considering?
Cheers
Rob
