Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi just wanting some feed back from you guys i have a 91 gq lwb and it is on duel fuel and i'm wanting to turbo her my problems are i still want to be able to carry enough fuel now staight gas seems to be the cheapest way to go but just not to sure how much fuel i could carry and what the economy would be like i have a small (36 litre) gas tank behind the back seat and i have a draw setup and fridge slide that i don't want to lose, the car has to petrol tanks i think it holds like 140 litre all up i mainly just want to know some gas tank combos you guys may be running and the sort of km's you are getting out of a straight gas turbo setup. thanks for helping.

hey mate, i run a strait gas turbo set up, a bit different as i have a ute but i have 2x i think 115 litre tanks in it, i get about 650 kms all up out of them and thats not driving it slow either

hey kysi thats pretty sweet economy, if i get even close to that ill be happy hehe but what can i say, traffic light drags are my thing .... its the only way to reach 60 before the next set

Ha Ha yeah i was suprised how good the economy was, and its nice and quick to

BIG for you guys down at pgs

i think i know where im goin once my turbo is on

400kms for 140lts of gas

i think we need to take it to joel lol

i highly recomend the guys at PGS, they done alot of the work on my engine, and they did it very quick and with great results, and overall explained everything i asked in depth and to top it off are a nice bunch of blokes

Maybe look at a bigger gas tank behind your seats/chopping a bit outta the draws? Other thing to consider is that you can get petrol just about anywhere, but gas can be a bit harder.

Oh i know, those lads in skylines get me going haha, and vls hahaha na ones!!! love it

oh i forgot to add, if your running straight gas you can safely fit 3 tanks in

2 110L (90 ish useable) under the car, and one in the back of the wagon the one in the back is up to you, im using apa ford wagon scuba style tanks tho, and im gonna make a false floor over them so all up i should have around 230 ish litres of useable gas (ford tanks are 65L so about 50 ish useable)

ford BA/BF wagon twin scuba tanks are 116L aprox 90-95 useable

Absolutely correct, and im looking for one myself.......if anyone knows where i can get one at a reasonable price....

yes thats true, but they are larger in size, the beauty of the el - au tanks is there is 3 of them, and they fit below your wheel arches in the back of the wagon, so very neat to build a false floor over
