I decided to add LPG to my Stilo because is cheaper fuel.

I will use the following parts.

KME Diego G3 ECU
Autogas Italia Reducer
Magic injectors + Rail
BRC 600x220mm tank 47Lt

I had to bypass the petrol injectors to get signal for the LPG injectors but I would prefer not to cut the Stilo cables so I get plugs for the injectors cable one to connect to Stilo's ECU side plug and another to Stilo's petrol Injector side plug.

Today I fitted the LPG tank at spare wheel compartment.Its a BRC tank 600x220mm 47lt with 38lt 80% max. With this size the boot floor didn't rise at all. I think that this size its enough, from calculations I expect a 550km range with 26 Euro (38lt x 0.675euro and 6.9lt/100km consumption with LPG, I have 6.2lt/100km with petrol)

That looks like a pretty neat install. It's handy that the tank is a decent size really. Usually to get a good tank, you get a bulge on the boot carpet.. :D

On the other hand, how many miles will you have to do before the fuel saving pays for the cost? The 1.2 isn't exactly a gas guzzler..?

I installed the kit myself so far and my concern is to fit the parts as clean as possible and in optical order.

The cost to buy the front kit + tank new is about 300€

I have it for free from a used punto with 188a5000 engine same as mine.

It will cost me only papers and MOT, about 100 euro.

I do about 30000km per year and the petrol cost is about 2500euro so with LPG will save about 1200euro.(half)
