LPG for power boost on a diesel.. think of it as a way of adding fuel while reducing knock. So not a replacement fuel.

Re: Help

For diesel LPG is more for power (I think 30%-40% LGP in mix with diesel was), for economy will need to wait lot longer... :)

But if you want power for decent price in our country we put OM605 (or OM606 if not worry about pounds in offroad) and injection pump with for instance 7mm elements(original I think is 5.5mm), mechanical or electric (latter requires remapping).

Rest you can read in superturbodiesel. Conversation and upgrades I think will cost the same...
