Not as much as a turbo, but gains of 30 to 40 HP have been advertised.

Check out the supporting vendor sections. There are several supporting vendors who offer various stages of tuning, from the +30HP ECM tunes all the way up to +200HP (that's in addition to the stock 177!) turbo kits.
Thanks for the info,will do some homework
