    Open na pala yung lpg conversion place sa ortigas home depot, deside big berts. I checked the place this am. Owner was not there but was able to talk to the installers.

    Name of company: Green Autogas.
    Kit: Aldesa brand from Turkey but their tanks are locally sourced. Saw made in RP mark on the tank.
    They have 3 kinds of kits: carb, efi and sequential injection.
    I copied their price list, negotiable daw sabi nung installer.
    Carb 24,000
    EFI 27,000
    Sequential injection ( comes with ECU, and injectors ) 4 cylinder 52,000, 6 cylinder 68,000, 8 cylinder 90,000

    Here is the link to the website of Aldesa

    Ito pala yung perodic maintenance schedule of lpg kits. Taken from Aldesa website. I copied and paste it for your convienence.

    http://www.aldesa.com.tr/aldesa/en/c...4&CID=13&PID=5

    "Possible Failures With Your LPG System
    Periodical Maintanence

    The electrical installation shall be checked at every 10,000 kilometers and for the existence of any oxidization on connections.
    Caustics and impurities trapped in the evaporator-regulator shall be discharged by opening the drain plug at every 10,000 kilometers.
    The filter in the LPG electro-valve shall be cleaned at every 10,000 kilometers.
    Repair sets for electro-valves and the evaporator-regulator shall be changed at every 10,000 kilometers.
    The state of the main hose and connection components should be checked.
    Stage 1 and 2 pressures of the depressurizer should be checked.
    Any filth buildup in the hole counterbalancing the pressure on the diaphragm should be checked" Quoted from Aldesa website.

    Actually the pricing for sequential injection isn't that surprising. Auto_xer and I did a comparitive price study if we built an automotive LPG system using nitrous oxide kits as the starting point. The pricing came out somewhat similar.

    Hello everyone

    (I didn't read the entire thread, please don't kill me hihihi)

    I'm just wondering how much ang conversion to LPG? Let's say for Vios J or Sentra GX (both will be brand new, 1.3L, pang taxi). I'm afraid na pag hindi ako nag LPG, the drivers will ask for a much lower boundary.

    Also, baka may ma-refer kayo na mahusay magconvert to LPG.

    Thanks mga boss.

    ok, we'll just do it short of kill you...

    Basically the prices based on NAIADSS:
    carb: P24,000
    efi (1.6L and smaller engine displacement): P28,000

    BTW, it is possible to negotiate a slight discount if you have more than one car to be installed with their LPG kit.

    Also, baka may ma-refer kayo na mahusay magconvert to LPG.
    as I see it, you should go to a LPG installer that is nearby because you will be sending your cars there periodically for adjustments or retuning of the LPG system.
