They sound good  :-* Although if you're going to get a fast Passat you may as well go for the R36  :y

Don't see any reason why you couldn't use the same kit that we stick on the omegas  ;)

Might be a bit of trial and error with the gas nozzle size but the ecu / reducer would handle that engine with no problems  :y

from a bit of search , not every kit is compatible with FSI engines..  I see BRC uses a direct injection model on them.. also prince is installed succesfully.. so you must check the kit for engine compatibility..
 
also the new liquid injection systems worth checking..
 
and some brands dont drill manifold

Your biggest challenge with the Passat is bonding with it..........they simply are so dull and uninteresting even with a big engine and four wheel drive

Not sure about lpg on turbo engines (or complressors).
Ive had brc on my previous mig, got it cheaply from one bloke.
Reason is the following
The bloke had c 220 kompressor merc.
Lpg-ed it first with Landy Renzo I think, and it wouldnt work.
Then he bought BRC (the most expensive one) and it still didn't wont to work properly when the compressor came on.
Most of the cars with turbo and compressors work without problems but I KNOW there were some which simply didn't work properly no matter what lpg kit was done.

Agreed, yet to see a VAG auto go past about 80k miles .

Mathewst, this is an fsi engine.. and you have right, tsi models are biggest headache for lpg installers..
 
besides, they event cant solve friends standard athmosperhic mondeo's lpg problem.. (2010 BRC kit .. engine duratec 2.0)
 
first problem I did solve (injector sockets were faulty-so we solder them  ;D ) , later another problem start , they changed the lpg injectors 2 times from guarantee.. and car still same..  :-\
