    for Corollas with carb engines, they said two hours installation time.

    for my ae111 corolla gli 1.6L, it started 11:00am and finished around 4:30pm. They did waste an hour figuring out why my "park" light won't light up (busted fuse because they plugged one of my switches wrong during reassembly of my under-dashboard). So it should even out at around four (4) hours for my LPG kit installation.

    sir talagang advantagious yung latest kit.kasi ecu in doing the adjustment every second to the optimum mixture ng air to fuel.witch is being send by the upstream o2 sensor at downstream o2 sensor kaya kung ang exhaust mo eh.ma co2.mag aadjust na sya ng kusa.then dahil may manifold or mas flow sensor ang mga new cars natin.adjust din sya lalo na pag nasa diff altitude ka tulad ng baguio or tagaytay,di kayang gawin manually yan kahit pa may remote manual adjustment.in the sense mas optimum ang efficiency ng car mo.well siguro dun sa wala pang mga o2 sensor na car they would just have to settle for less.other tip pag naka lpg kit ka you must also have gaso kasi tumatakbo din ang gaso system mo. dilang ng iinject ng gasolina.kahit mga 1/4 tank lang para may cooling system yung gas fuel pump at injector na originaly install sa car mo. ty

    hi guys! before the year ends, we will be opening a refilling, import LPG kits and installation LPG center. as of now we are planning how to make our service best. im always reading this forum and i personally thank you for the inputs and we've heard the booboos that other conversion centers did. we are in a planning stage and we are now looking for a good location. maybe you can help us to choose a site. where do you live so that we can relatively check the best site to serve you. we are not gonna stick with 1 site. if we see more markets in other places, we are going to branch out soon. i'll keep you guys posted. thank you very much and hope to hear more feedbacks from you. we will consider all the feedbacks so that we can serve you the best. and as for the rear cover (just like chuaed did), we are try to consider it as a complimentary. no final yet but it is possible

    i think the commonwealth area near the UP, Don Antonio anf Filinvest areas would be a good location.

    R8 what kind of kit will you be offering? Will it have an ecu-type of air/fuel real time calibration similar to the one being offered by Autogas near ABS-CBN? For a V8 EFI engine like the F150, what would be the price range of the kit? I am also interested in installing one in my my 1967 Mustang V8 (4-barrel carbureted engine). Estimated cost of the kit?

    that would be good, with added competition which equates better quality of service and at reasonable price... for your first station i think it would be best to look around first, which is best suited for your business, usually with a highly visible traffic... mahirap mag suggest kung saan ka maglalagay ng shop, for that you have to do your own research... baka bigla nalugi sisihin mo kami dito....

    it would be better also if you could accomodate service to customers who has installed autolpg from other company , dapat may diagnostic, computer digital eck eck and a dyno tune/track thing-a-magig...

    plus added accessories, like pressure gauges, air/fuel mixture gauges, better lpg fuel gauges/switch, multi-tanks (dual), tanks that can be fitted undercarriage of suv... upgrade parts like injectors, ecu, regulators that is compatible with existing autogas device/appliances previously installed...

    important is giving quality and customer satisfaction guaranteed...

    finally, iyun shop gawin presentable na hindi magmukhang talyer sa tabi tabi lang... give it some class kahit papano... it wont hurt also if you could have a display of a hi-end car/suv specially those gas guzzler ones (like bmw X5, and Jaguar i'm not saying matakaw iyan ah) and a demo car that has an autolpg appliance installed...

    rest assured ako ang magiging unang customer mo diyan...

    study first before buying!! Huwag mag pa sales talk sa mga tao,

    natural they will claim na mas modern ang kits nila,

    pero the rule of the thumb is tignan ninyo who is the dominant player,

    lahat ng taxi fleets like avis go for NAIADSS, heck even GH and chuaed went for NAIADSS
    Good to know. Kasi nung pumunta ako sa Naiadss, di kami magkaintindihan nung Koreano. Wala akong ibang makausap. The Korean opened the hood and looked for a min or two then walked away grunting something and shook his head indicating he can not do it. I tried to ask what he was saying and all he can say is no. After a few more futile attempts at comunicating, I finally understood that he was saying that the kit can not fit in my car. I left there without knowing what their kit is composed of. Never even found out w/c part will not fit.

    grabe naman bilis mo mag husga... obvious naman eh mga koreano mga iyun natural hindi tayo maintindihan because of language barrier... kahit tayo mga filipino eh hindi rin natin sila maintindihan...

    with regards sa binangit ni userfriendly eh mabuti at nasabi nila pag hindi kaya kabitan at inamin nila iyun limitation... i'm sure kapag filipino eh sige basta kumita ng pera eh kahit hindi pwede gagawan ng paraan at pipilitin hanggan sa "pwede na iyan..."

    nagpapadami lang ako ng post...

    peace

    my only advice to those considering LPG Kits CAVEAT EMPTOR "Buyer Beware",

    there are people who will sweet talk you into buying like their kits

    Reasons advanced, are their LPG Kits are made in italy , germany., made by German shepherds etc.. hehehe

    Of course they will try to impress you with a litany of statements on why their kit is the best it has Artificial intelligence (hehehe)kesyo it controls teh output ng LPG any kit already does that pinaganda lang pagkakasabi at inexplain lang ng maganda

    NATURALAMENTE they are trying to get you to buy the LPG kits from them!!

    think of it maski made in italy yan eh kung ang presyo naman eh 50 thousand eh ilang taon mo bago mo mabawi ang kit na yun? so think before mag pa loko,

    just be vigilant guys, ayaw ko lang na maloko ang mga TSIKOT people

    Chevy Venture, I also read that in this forum that they can't install in E150s. If I get the time I'll bring my Cefiro maybe this time someone will be able to expalin their system. Sino ba dapat hanapin?

    BTW, do they check your car first before installing? I mean kung ok pa yung engine mo?

    i was there before sometimes ago when a potential customer wanted to install a autogas device at naiadss... and i saw the korean looking at the car... and i know why they turn it down... its because there is no space in the engine compartment to put the vaporizer... maybe try mo sa autogas power at quezon city near abs-cbn... injected pa iyun sa kanila...

    since brand new pa car ko, hndi ko na siya pina check...

    A few of the reasons why the Italian kits are more expensive than the Korean kits even if their quality could be the same.

    -The currency (EURO) is very strong (against the Philippine Peso). Try checking the prices of a McDonald's burger meal in Italy. It will cost you more than P500.

    -Transportation costs. Since Italy is farther than Korea, it is natural that it will incur higher transportation costs.

    jvm13,

    thank you for your reply, we are looking at the side of south, but we can consider that. thank you!

    woodfire,

    im not familiar with autogas' lpg kit but we'll also have the ecu type. for the a/f calibration, we are still looking for device that will help us to check if we have installed the unit correctly. for the v8, it will range less than 40k. for your mustang, i still have to check. dont worry, i will check it out soon thank you so much!

    dear chuaed,

    thank you for taking time asking and replying. as i've mentioned in my reply with woodfire, we will look for a device that will help us to check if we install the unit correctly. regarding the service, yes we can accept kits that is not from us but we still have to check if its a minor or major job. im also looking into parts/ accessories. i've seen gauges with carbon fiber pa hehe.. im still looking into putting lpg kits on expeditions, bmws, benzs, porsches, etc.. because my supplier had installed in a porsche cayenne in india. i'll post pictures of what cars i really want to display with lpg finally, expect us to be a service oriented establishment im doing this not for a profit, we are doing this for the sake of our country. instead of importing crude oils, atleast we can help even just a little part. we should start helping our country with ourselves our main line of business is not into automotive, we are in a hardware business in binondo. but as ive said, we can see the effect that causes Philippine business slow down.

    dear snake,

    defi a/f gauge cguro pwede hehhee im not sure

    hi ghosthunter,

    how much are they selling their kits? medyo mahal yata eh..
