    a month ago i called up Naiadss regarding the buyback of the LPG Kits installed in my car, sadly i forgot to write down his name. Anyway, he said that they do buyback the said product and told me to bring the car. after a couple of days i visited their office at sheridan and told them about the buyback, unfortunately no one knew about the buyback and they just pass me around and one of the sales agent said that they don't offer buyback... then i asked about the SGI kits that they offer, and asked them for an upgrade, the sales agent said that they don't do upgrade, if i wanted the'll remove the old lpg kits (with charge) and replace it with the SGI kits... grabe, kalokohan talaga...

    kainiss they just f*#$%^g wasted my time for nothing... sarap

    i'm no expert in automotive, or with regards to LPG but i know it is possible to upgrade, the tank, the filler nozzle, the electricals, the copper tubings will remain, and the regulator, the venturi and the ecu will be replace... how hard can that be... afterwared they can re-sell the replaced parts since it is still in a very good condition for a profit...

    So i called up Tartarini, and spoke to one of the agent... he said that he'll find me a buyer for the kits, and in return i'll have my car install their SGI kits.

    Boss Chuaed, pls keep us updated on your upgrade project. How much did they quote for the SGI? And can you pls post a review if there are differences between your old kit and SGI?

    BTW, this is OT but how is your CEL?

    SGI kits offer better fuel economy and power than carb type LPG kits. So if your engine is EFI, it would be nice to have a SGI kit. One of the problems of the carb-type LPG kit is it's sensitivity to changes to air pressure or even to the condition of your engine's air filter. A SGi kit would also eliminate the potential blow-back potential with carb type kits.

    LPG makes the engine run cooler than gasoline. Of course, if your LPG kit is not properly adjusted to give the proper air-fuel ratio, your engine can run lean and cause internal damage.
