If you're running lpg you have a restricted intake. swapping back to petrol wont change that fact.

hmmm... that bit i know and really ticks me off! the car came with a nice big K&N pod filter that had to be removed or covered with a plastic bag for the gas system to start up 
also i jus bought a cold air intake chip that would piggy-back the cold air sensor, to enable my ECU to give me a better fuel/air mix.... but with the LPG i dont think i would be able to use that mod.

 )EL = FTW The AU may be lighter buts it's got to lug around all that ugly the EL doesn't. Seriously. Sam, A dual fuel Falcon is no performance machine. It's a compromise either way, petrol and LPG are very different fuels, making a car run on both means it does a poor job of both. Revel in the fact you mum has to pay more to do 100km than you do.

Ohh please don't tell anyone that! hahaha please elaborate? Basically they're a 5c resistor at best... and they do pretty much nothing. |

only reason i asked to what mixer you had on it for the gas . even tho the out hose size maybe 100mm , the internal size of the mixer is about 45-50mm diametre thus creating the restriction

The resistor tricks the ECU into thinking the engine is constantly cold, thus it dumps in more fuel. more fuel = more power right. NOPE (you need more air to match it as well). All you do is increase you're fuel bill
