Default NGV conversion for RS4?

Has anyone looked into an NGV conversion for an RS4, or any other Audi for that matter? I think this would be a great way to make this car fuel efficient. That would just be too cool to have a 420 hp low emissions vehicle. Is it even possible with such a high compression engine? The Honda Civic NGV is only 110 hp.

Default Problem is with FSI ...

if you don't inject any gasoline(petrol) the injectors in the cylinder overheat, so with an FSI engine you always have to burn about 25% gasoline & 75% gas.

Default Thanks for the clarification

I find it interesting and it may be really difficult to do high performance state of the art cars without gasoline. Maybe diesel? But it wouldn't purr like mine, that's for sure.
