Default LPG question for the mock crew

Just to clarify, as looking over a few posts i've seen a few different answers. I have an EF wagon with an aftermarket duelfuel setup. I'm looking at getting a dev 3hl kit put in. Can anyone give me power figures at the wheel running on 1. gas and 2. petrol? Also is there much in the way of economy decreases?
Thanks in advance!
Daniel

Sorry mate, none at the moment as the car is not presentable. You can't see it in the avatar but the car needs a respray. It's currently at the panel beaters since yesterday and the job will take about 4 weeks. As for how much power it makes I would say roughly 170rwkw but the engine is still being run-in and when that's done Brenden will perform the final tune of the interceptor on the dyno.
Then we'll see.

Cheers
Gerry

Gas power predictions are hard as there are many gas systems and differnt controllers on the market.
A good gas system should only be 5 kw behind the petrol, however some gas systems run lean and dont put in enough gas to make good power and fall upto 20 kw less than petrol.

typically a 3hl gas car would make 125 to 130 rwkw, however this is not an accurate output, just an estimation.
