Anyway, if it's biogas, you're doing very well
Outside of Belgium -we don't have biogas here- I try to tank biogas whenever I can


For the periodic technical test , likely



BTW, you're not allowed to lower a CNG up! due to R110 regulation
(height of CNG tank above the ground)



You could install an airdam and lower the pan behind that a bit, rather than lowering the whole car

The problem with the up CNG is that it consumes so little that there isn't very much to be gained.
Mods are never going to pay for themselves
I think all gasum stations sell H-gas.

I will try MOT with the luposetup and if it goes well sell the energys.

Good call on the lowering!

Hopefully next summer I get some motivation to tinker with aero. I might try wai in the mean time. Have you tested it with your eco up?
