I would think adding the 29 hp gain of the kit to the average 160hp would be more like the gains you could expect with a full exhaust and a tune. In other words 189 horse power.
Cosworth claims 230 at the crank for the 1.3 I believe...so 230 minus the parasitic losses ( alternator, starter, water pump,A/C compressor, all idler and tensioner pulleys, etc) would be around 190-200 hp at the crank.
I would be interested to see this same car on another dyno..

This is what I've been thinking, more like 190 range is what I'd expect, but I know nothing about the automatic transmission cars.
