Any serious answers out there, I've also been looking at what Andy has to offer in the mobile BBQ department, does anyone have any feedback, particularly the Puma? 2009 XS 110 Utility Stornaway Grey

LPG is ok on the puma IF used in moderation. We used it back when we started the tuning developement in 2007 on Andy's Puma.

Jon at CarGas had a problem, as his Camel Disco was so heavy (full spec, axes and everything) the LPG injection made his clutch slip.

this is why I love this forum! Always learning something new! Can you point me to more usefull info on it on the WWW? (particularly LR related)
edit: just read the allisport site bout it... propane is not LPG is it? can it be filled in regular gas station? "cylinder (?) not included"?  Regards

Presumably Andy @ Allisport is well aware of the limitations required to run it on a Puma as he's advertising the kit on his website? Does the existing state of tune influence how much more can be achieved with Gas? 2009 XS 110 Utility Stornaway Grey BAS re Remap, BAS Turbo, BAS Spec Modified Airbox, Twisted Side exit Decat Exhaust, Allisport Cooler and Hoses, OME Sport Shocks, Kangaroo Paw Discs. 2001 Discovery II Porsche Speedster Replica 1956ish |

Pete as a tuning expert, People hopefully will take note of any performance related things you say, I think you should emphasise the bit about moderation, as we have discussed in many of our phone conversations about these types of mods, it's the lack of moderation (especially on the puma) that causes a whole host of problems. |
