That evapourator would barely run a decent fiesta engine.

Yet another clear example of why egay should be avoided.

A stag kit, so familiar ground to plenty on here. :y

Not sure what current prices are like, but that strikes me a pricy for the front end bits only excluding any consumables, so you will need nozzles, hose and clips, all mounting and plumbing hardware, a programming cable, some polyflex hose to the rear, tank, valve and valve box, tank mounting hardware, filler and so on.

Prins prices. From £1680/£2100 inc VAT depending on the system you go for.  ;)  So assuming Prins will be the most expensive, you can work downwards from there for a fully installed system.  :)

And I'd be happy to pay a small premium for PRINS, as it is a better system

Mine has a Prins VSI system which was installed at 56000 ish miles and I've just taken her through 230,000 miles.  8)  No valvecare on it either.  ;)

Any problems I've had with it have been related to general engine problems such as coolant leaks, rather than the LPG system itself.  :y

So I'd say it's a good advert for Prins!  Maybe I should contact them and they'll give me a large cash reward!  ::)  ;D

Valvecare/flashlube is only required if the valves are too hard in the head. GM V6 doesn't need it.
