PICHARDO - Most of the developed world uses LPG as a conversion system. At least that holds true for the European Union. CNG is used only by some public transport systems (means big buses). While natural gas is used for cooking in most of Europe, LPG is the system for cars. I think the DR government would make a big mistake trying to convert to CNG.
Hillbilly - it is true that CNG has less efficiency than LPG. To get as far with CNG as with LPG, I have read in papers, you would need tripple the tank as for LPG.
AZB - I have bought Italian system, with the corresponding tank, it has a gauge inside the cabin which can switch from gas to gasoline and back to gas at a blink of an eye, and indicates the LPG level. The system was 15.500 pesos installed in Santo Domingo.
As far as engine life is concerned, the opposite is true I have read, e.g. that the engine life is actually extended by using LPG.
