Default Loss of power and poor performance (2.5)

Hey guys,

I'm having some serious trouble with my car. I can't get over 160km/h. The car is revving up untill maximum though. What I do notice is that, when you get let's say 120km/h and you're giving full gas the car doesn't increase in speed for a second then it does speed up and then again it's stops for a second and speeds up later. It seems like it's leaking air somewhere.

The car has LPG on it, however both on gas or gasoline it remains the same.

I don't have the 'Limited engine performance' notification and it did a OBD scan myself. Here are the results:

Code:
P0191: Fuel rail pressure sensor circuit range/performance
P0430: Catalyst system efficiency below threshold
P1549: Variable induction system 1 low/high input/intake manifold communication control A circuit malfunction
It would be amazing if you guys could clear something up as I don't really understand what these codes exactly tell me.

Thanks in advance

Clear them and see if they come back. Does your OBD tool have "live data"? If so, look at LTFTs (see my sig) warmed up at idle & about 2500rpm (in P or N).

When you have more posts you can grab the free JTIS and codes PDF. They have details of the codes and the known causes.
