if you want to do it a bit easier, use the xf efi manifold and convert it to lpg. u'r gonna need a turbo manifold, air filtration set up of some sort, turbo, oil lines, possibly coolant lines, intake ducting, possible intercooler, modified exhaust and heaps of little goodies to tie it all together. you'll also need to work out a budget, and then double it, then double it again.

theres heaps of ppl on here with a wealth of infinite knowledge who've done it successfully so you should be able to work it out.
