Some people say it is a load of wank. But I reckon there was some improvement in my update when I had one fitted prior to the LPG.

I know it made a difference in mine on my old engine, I have heard others with OBD2 models who haven't found a difference but I must admit now that I am running a late model engine in mine with the OBD1 controls I have noticed less difference, I have also noticed less difference on this engine with the late model intake swap when compared to the old engine.....

Do the OBD 2 stock engines go harder than stock OBD 1 to make up for it?

The torque curve is different, the OBD1 engines achieve maximum torque at 3950rpm, the OBD2 engines at 3000rpm and the same horsepower, the OBD2 Zg engines at 2100rpm but slightly less horsepower yet the part number for the engine is the same so it must be in the programming....

Mine is an OBD2 Zg engine...
