LOL...
Well its fairly straightforward. it has a seperate fuel rail on each side with 8 total CNG injectors, when the car starts up , its on Petrol, after temp or specified time is reached it switches over to CNG. 7 gallons of CNG in this case, there is ways of doing more but this was what they opted for. its a pressurized 3600lb system that is so much safer than Gasoline its crazy. There is a lot to explain on it, but I will be more than happy to elaborate or get you someone that does it for a living.
There is a lot of really good info on www.cngnow.com if you are seriously interested in learning more or if you would like I can get you in contact with the installer. They are great guys and the largest CNG installer in the U.S.

That's sick. I've been thinking about trying lpg injection and a turbo before. That car is really nice! LPG has a lot of octane and cooling effect. CNG probably works simmilar? Can you fill it at your house?

Very clean install. In for more details. Like, what happens if it runs out of CNG? Is the transition gradual or instant from fuel to fuel? Can you tell while you are driving? Is it CNG at WOT or basically all the time until it runs out? Is there a separate system for the CNG control or is it one computer doing everything? If so, what computer?

they switch instantly, and you never know it until you look down at your gas gauge and see its on regular gas. or the indicator light is lit up for GAS.
