If you split a mono item into stereo, it won't actually be in stereo; you'll have identical information in the left and right tracks, with the result being the same as if you'd left it in mono. It would be the same as if you duplicated the item, then panned one copy left and the other right. The same information coming from both speakers results in mono.

If you can clarify what you're trying to accomplish in the long run, we may be able to provide a better answer.

i have an action and part of this action is "inserting FX on item" but if item is in mono then result fx (bounced) is mono too ((
so i want to convert mono item in stereo item.

You could also do this by tweaking the in/out matrix on that item FX, will make it stereo even if item is mono.
