Hello,
Has anyone tried to make that motor work with gas? I know that the older C5 S6 4.2 has been made to use CNG in Europe but haven’t found any evidence of 5.2 FSI.
What would be the problems, if there would be?
Sorry for double post but I can’t seem to edit my first one.
The only one I found http://www.fedorauto.cz/prestavby-vozidel?id=79&action=detail&oid=3029727&nid=1708
Using this system http://www.icomitalia.it/en/icom-jtg-hp/
Considering they’ve converted a Audi 3.2FSI engine, I’d say this would work pretty good.
the 3.2FSI uses the same injectors as the 5.2 and shares the same design elements.
I’d imagine this would work quite well, what’s the cost involved tho?
There are many kits for LPG and due to the computer system and complexity of it I would strongly push that as the best direction as LPG closely mimics petrol in its fuel to power raito. Once you add in a third party fuel veriant you run into computer correction issues that can be a nightmare.
I know lots of fleet cars run on LPG with just a simple conversion.
