I would urge caution. These systems work by substituting a percentage of the diesel fuel with LPG and do deliver more power or better fuel economy depending on how you drive the car. The general idea is that you don't have to depress the throttle as far to get the same performance and you can then realize some fuel consumption savings, but I have had quite a number of reports of serious engine meltdowns because the driver simply couldn't resist the temptation to keep the foot down on the throttle. My concern is also that there isn't the same experience with these systems as there is with dual-fuel systems on petrol engines, so they're more exposed to problems. Before you do it talk to other owners about their experience with the systems.
