Yes you can decat the car for a bit more power.
A chip is not going to affect your power when you are on LPG only when you are on petrol.
A MOT tester should test the car on the fuel it is running on at the time of the test, so if it is on LPG it could well pass with out a CAT but you need to check your emisions to be sure.

The 12v makes 345 bhp & 365 lbs.
24V is still being built, pistons have just arrived from the States actually.
Should be around 500 bhp.
