Only if throttle input is also the same.

It could be. I do not have a huge problem with the power. I would assume if it ran like crap it would be noticeable. They are not selling a performance part. I just have a problem with doing a bunch of blind tuning on a motor and trusting it will work.

Also, I do not believe that the fuel cell can produce enough to make a difference. People have been using propane for a long time to increase gas mileage. Ask the people in OZ and Europe. However also check the size of the tank they add as well as the pressure in the tank.
