and Mag as i have heard LPG has high octane and thus will resist detontation better. its just that u need alot of it to reach proper AFRs
Yep, seems MAG posted while I was writing my post . Yes LPG has higher octane and it's common to advance the timing a bit when running LPG. We have two turbo cars here running on LPG (the new injected type) and they run fine but not as good as on petrol. Currently a friend converted his turbo E36 328i to LPG, on petrol it runs @ 1 bar but on LPG it starts leaning out after 0.5, so now his waiting for bigger LPG injectors.
