TURBOTAXI has a LPG Injection setup on his XR6T.
so yes... you can.

technically you could go a run of the mill vapour setup but i don't know how well it'd handle backfires.

yep they can, I wasnt sure about the straight gas setup until I read what John said but they can defintely be converted to duel fuel, I have seen many XR6T's on duel fuel at my work (Ford Dealership) with little or no problems

its probably due to the early reports regarding the LPG's fueled cars breaking rods.
but since then loads of BA's have been put on aftermarket LPG systems without issues.

yeah we were thinking of that but way to expensive at the moment.

i'll be looking under $20k for one so i have some cash todo 20-22inch wheels, drop it and a few mods here and there but nothing much.

dont have to tell me id never own a terri without warranty they are far worse that falcons with diff bushes and ball joints.

the sy terri has a revised bush over the sx though which tends to last longer ive found.
