just wondering, running a impco 200 now and its only allowing 150fly wheel (82 i have at the wheels cuz of the restriction of flow on it) ..

the 225 having the same problem with air intake at 3" and outlet from mixer to t/b 2.5 and only slightly more fuel coming in .. anyone done anything with the lpg excluding injection to get a mixer to hit the 150-180 at the wheels mark pumping? ..

i mean injection wouldnt be a bad option but im not willing to spend that much on a older car really.. asm uch as i love my car i cant be assed!

fuzion, i was just looking at the picture i have of your system, it's got the intake pipe that runs to the converter instead of the fuel pipe from the converter running to the intake pipe, this seems a bit unusual to me. i've seen a fair few cars on L.P.G. now and never another one with a similar set up to you.

Where's scotts840, he's like the expert on l.p.g.

That is very weird, I am running an Impco 200 mixer, and I dynoed 138rwhp after it was fitted, and that was with a f**k gearbox that struggled to keep 2nd and 3rd gear.

yeah fuzion on my setup i have an impco 200 mixer on mine and it has puller 127rwkw (once only) on the HPC dyno down here. Have u had it on a dyno and got it tuned correctly?

Also i dont know if you LPG users know this or not, but u CAN get bad LPG as i found out in my car. Safeway/Woolworth petrol LPG is once again s**t. It made my car far less responsive than it was and ALOT more sluggish. I let the tank run empty, filled it up with BP LPG and she is back to getting blue smoke (from the tires) :lol:
