its a rajab racing plenum, chose this plenum due to it being cast made a bit stronger than most out there, and its a proven plenum, just in case of a backfire

This is a VE calais I just finished converting to gas using the new JTG LIQUID INJECTION system.
It gained an extra 21.4 RWKW over petrol!!!!
More torque and power from idle to redline when compared to petrol. Drivability is amazing as the torque comes in alot sooner in the range and it gets up and screems with much more urgency than petrol.
All at $1 less per litre!!!!
And here's a shot of a XR6Turbo I did last week.
this gains 20RWKW over petrol. Once again NO tuning whatsoever (the petrol ECU runs the liquid injectors directly, there is no piggy back ECU)
Liquid injection is more suited to boosted applications as it acts as a chemical intercooler, therefore chemically supoercharging the engine by freezing the air intake charge entering the engine.
this stuff is the future of LPG by a long shot!

Its sposed to be only 5% more gas use than petrol.
I haven't got any concrete feedback yet.

hmm
seeing as the kits aren't really car specific, whats the price of the tank alone for these liquid injection systems?

yeah i know how they work and understand they're expensive.
but if the system is able to be run off aftermarket ECUs, then to me, with a tank, lines and injectors, it could be setup in a similar fashion to a normal petrol system, which i feel with the tank installed, i could takle most of the other ****, keeping costs down alot.
but just something i thought i'd suss out lol.
im not keen on spending $4.5k on something that doesnt need fixing (my gra setup)

nice job gasrb6, like what u did with that throttle cable. vl cables r a pain in the ass because of there length, they almost do 2 laps of the engine bay and u still got some.
was playn around with cables during the week a found a vk efi cable works fantastic with front facing plenums (after havn tons of after market ones made). its probly long enough to get right up to where the battery sits. not sure if the carby model runs the cable but I can't seeing being any longer.
hope this helps a few guys
