Installing NGV in the turbo engine

[bujang_hensem]

Hi guys,

Anybody has done it? Is it save to install NGV for turbo petrol engine? The petrol price is killing me...i'm only looking for dual mode config...normal crusing and traffic jam using NGV and to feel the force switch back to fuel...so far most of the taxi in my country using this type of config....there can are running natural gas or petrol by only switching the switch to activate type of fuel to burn. Well natural gas so cheap here..it cost 60% less compared to petrol....with the current petrol price...it's time for me to look for an alternative....the only thing now most of NGV car/taxi using normal NA engine....

I don't think anybody has done it to these vehicles. I've looked around and I don't see much information about it.

Burns hotter, runs leaner and cleaner, it might be ok to run on very low boost but i have no experience runnning NG on turbocharged applications.

yes tuning might be the main issue...so far can't get info the correct A/F ratio for the NG...so far from the info on the internet..the natural gas can run leaner and not easy to knocking and recomended running on turbo car with higher compression ratio because of it not easy to knock...

CNG (compress natural gas) = 126 octane...better than fuel (only 92-93 octane)
