Yes EJ22 runs perfectly, you will need a minimum closed loop system like our Millenium Control or the sequential Dream system, I ran a panel van fore a while on the Millenium system and it gave about 28mpg on gas (56mpg equivalent petrol), I only got rid because it cost me 9 points on my licence, they are nice and quick.

great... van is currently runs a standard 1.9 DG. Does it need to be running the EJ22 before you LPG it up? Or can you also do that conversion at the same time?

It depends on what you want, if you convert the DG at £825.00 plus vat then when you convert to the Subaru it will cost you another £150.00 - £225.00 depending on what you incude in the conversion for the differnet control and mixer, if you do not use a lambda probe for the injection we will still need one for the gas so it will have to be added.

If you leave it until you have converted it will cost you £985.00 plus vat providing you have the necesary inputs including the lambda probe, all prices are less your Club discount of course.
