as far as i know, gas tends to burn more than it explodes, and since you want the fuel to explode, this means you would get less power...
thats probably a really bad explanation, but i'm pretty sure that gas gives you less power than petrol.

if fuel exploded its called detonation, LPG does not "explode" as much as fuel as it has higher octaine rateing thus LPG is better
BUT a given volume LPG have 19% less power producing then the same volume of unleaded BUT this can be overcome by geting 19% more in there via higher boost/compression aswell as useing the higher octaine rateing then you still have the fact its a gasious fuel that mixs better with the air and its also cleaner burning ohh and its 1/2 the price.
