nwc81, I don't have any installer to recommend you. But since your car size similar to kancil and DOHC engine, your car can fits only 40L Tank. You can refer to those who have converted kancil or Kenari.
You can use either economy mixer (RM4.5k-RM5.5k) or better performance Sequential Injection (RM5.5k-RM6.8k).

Yupe. Your car cannot use carburator type of conversion. Only mixer or Sequential Injection suit your case because your car is fuel injection so it's not possible to use carburator based kind of conversion.
The possible problems that might damaged engine when you over-use your car like those taxi's will be as follows:
1) Engine Overheating
-can be solved/minimized by using better coolant
-there are more factors contributing to this problem
2) Engine backfire/Detonation
-possible for mixer(poor workmanship) and curberator
-cause by poor air/gas mixture timing
-can be solved/minimized by adding TAP
3) Valve Seat Recession
-a sub-effect from engine overheating
-read the details from the forum
Others possible effect after conversion.
1) Power Loss
Mixer - loss about 10% Horse Power (HP)
Sequential Injection - loss about or less than 5% HP or near to none.
2) Radiator Water loss
Need to refill radiator more often.

I guess you need to understand some fact in my reply correctly.
-Using NGV car NOT EQUAL car overheating even it can increase your car operating temperature.
-Normal car usage WONT damage your car engine.
-TAXI DOESN'T use their car the same way like the normal user did. For example, Perodua car warranty say, if you convert your car to taxi, mean your warranty is void so you can see how serious car manufacturer sees how a car engine can be after being used as taxi, this applied to NGV and also NON-NGV taxi's. Therefore, use your own consensus, let say you work from 9am-6pm (8 hours) from monday to friday, you might always complain about your tiring job. Think the same thing applies to taxi driver or might be driving/working more than 8 hours daily. If you driving your car more than 8 hours daily non-stop, I'm sure your car engine wear will increase more than double.
My previous reply only talking about the possible effect after conversion and possible engine damage examples, that's doesn't mean you shouldn't find a good installer. 
There are others possible problems like gas leakage, that can cause bad gas comsuption milage for your car and also personal SAFETY HAZARD. If you don't mind your safety, then answer is YES  . If you answer YES, that would sounds more ODD and that implied your car value is higher than yourself. I guess you treasure your life, right? 
Furthermore, the whole conversion should done by licensed installer, if you think installing NGV is that easy, I guess there is no need for specialty installer shop at the first place.
Your car also need pass by the PUSPAKOM test and register to JPJ.
Why this forum sounds like NGV is NIGHTMARE? The answer is obvious, if there is totally no problem, I guess this INFORMATIVE forum wont be here at the 1st place. Therefore, it's obvious, all people is here to talk about PROBLEMS and suggest possible SOLUTIONS. If there is no such thing in this forum, I guess you wont be reading in the 1st place. We are not here to be "WU-HA" talking how great is NGV because THE COST SAVINGS (subject to installation type and ROI plan) and MORE ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLINESS of NGV is NOT DEBATABLE.
We all are in NO RISKS, NO GAINS situation. Convert a petrol car to gas car is already a RISK. Therefore, with enough knowledge and preparation all RISKS can be minimized/avoided. Even there are some people facing problem, but you still witness growth in NGV and not in declining position. For me, I WONT just focus on failure case, I also focus on success case and learned the lessons.
In short, a more experienced NGV installer you get, the less trouble you get so don't think NGV installation is DIY tasks and certain level of self-maintenance skills is needed to pro-longed your car engine life.

Their Sequential Injection cost RM6.8k. If you concern about the ROI, for you to recover the conversion cost, it might take you years. For my car, I just want a more environment friendly car, you know lar, nowadays all places is flooded cause by global warming of the green-gases (Carbon-dioxide).
My car is a MYVI 1.3 AUTO EZ (DVVT engine),I opt for Sequential Injection, therefore conversion cost more than RM6.8K because I want install TAP also but the TAP installation will be delayed, due to the TAP is out-of-stock. Check the link below for the update. I always update it.

I went to Hijau on Saturday, I saw a maroon colour Myvi in progress, is that your car Kok Leong ?
I talked to Hijau people, they are very knowlegable. Yeah, price not cheap quoted for my Waja. I call up other installers. However Hijau is not the most expensive NGV installation.

Yeah. That's mine. I'm a buggy and considerate customer. I always call-in to ask them for progress. Keke.. Hopefully my car still in piece. Haha..
I'll get my car by tommorow if there is no unexpected events.
So there goes my first non TAP sequential system. After about 1 month later, I'll get my TAP installed.

Your car looks good to me, with all the wirings. Saw the tank, it is big. Then again I have never see a NGV tank before, jakunlah . Must check with them about TAP, if I am going to install NGV soon.

kkchan7440, then you should checkout those have installed 70L-80L tanks. I guess that will be at least 20%-30% bigger than my type-2 tank.
So if the wiring looks ok, then the final comments can only be given after I tested it out, but I wont expected 100% problem-free car because we all make mistakes and as long as we correct our mistakes fast and tidy so it can be forgivens.
There is not much crazy people like me, who install NGV on their 9 months old car. I only saw 1 light-blue/Gray-colored, NGV powered MYVI driving pass by KLCC area before my current car. So not many MYVI being converted that I seen on road.

The actual price is not out yet because the TAP is depend on the market price that Hijau bought during their order.
The 1 for sure is Sequential Injection System Installation is fix on RM6.8k for now. Not sure whether they will raise the price or not on 2008, because 10% raise in raw material like metal is expected for 2008 so the base building cost will increase.

If you wanted to change cylinder size/type out of the default package (57L Type-1), there sure additional charges if the new tank cost more than what Hijau can absorbed but in my case Type-2 because there is a promotion for Type-2 tank with the same cost. So They called me whether I wanted to accept the type-2 offer. The definite answer for that is a YES, i think if you were me, you'll do the same.

For type of cylinder description. Goto http://www.iangv.org/vehicle-fuel-storage.html
Type-2 is ligther than Type-1, so it can reduce the vehicle weigth and your car rear suspension tension after installation.
Type-1 is stronger than type-2.
About how big cyliner can fit into your car, the best is you goto workshop and let the installer to test it for you since we can't any Kelisa NGV user in the community yet.

Your rear suspension tension is higher because the cylinder (let say 50 KG-varies depend the your cylinder weight) sit duck at your rear at all time, therefore your rear suspension might gone faster across time, but a better installer will add a suspension booster (rubber type of material to your rear suspension) to support the additional weight.

That is included in the conversion, if i'm not wrong.
EON Bank Credit Card 0%, 36 months My Payment Plan, that's mean additional 7% processing fees over the total amount.

I'm not sure about others banks. For my case, 12 months plan is not good enough for me. If I opt for 12 months plan for RM6.8k is around RM566++/month, that payment amount even higher than my monthly car loam installment.
