I've got the kit and it's like a whole new truck. The install was very easy, the only thing is they don't really tell you what all needs to come off with the fuel system, it says everything, but one thing leads to another so you just have to trust what they say and start pulling stuff, that's what I did and it works fine. It took probably 3-4 hours including pulling the gas tank and everything.

Call Cary at gotpropane.com (all contact info in my link)  he'll tell you anything you could ever need to know about propane conversions, he also has turbo kits.

I'm not sure about the MPG because I don't really drive it on the road that much, just around town occasionally. I don't think it's a lot worse than gas but I don't think I get quite what I used to. I still need to do a little adjusting, I think it's running a little rich. I don't know of anyone with the turbo but it definately sounds like a good plan.
