This has been tackled in the truck world a little differently .
Next year will see some newer model trucks on the road which use a clever way of getting around the registration which is costed on the horse power rating of the truck . You buy a say 400hp model of truck then by a accessory kit that fits to you diesel engine a LPG system , when you add to the load of the engine at a set load / speed / rpm normal 3d mapping equation the LPG is injected into turbocharger at a rate which replaces the air / diesel rating . And instantly you have a 600hp truck under your right foot returning to a 400hp once you life off , so you get around paying more rego . You will soon see which manufacture has worked out this set up because they will easily outsell the other manufactures due to the cost of the truck vs hp . And this technology is in big demand for purchase by the Americans so there will be lots of jobs for Australians producing this for the overseas market .
