10-15% higher elsewhere i'd say...
I was at WP yesterday after work and they had a TB'd 2.0XE 16v Nova on the RR, it made a solid 170bhp with a power curve as straight as a ruler.
How much do TB'd 2.0XE 16v motors normally make?

The Jenvey kit cost around £800 (Retail is £1k +)

Thats handy, i've got another S1 106 Rallye in the garage which i've fitted a 16v too.
It's easy to fit, its just the rewiring thats a bit fiddly.

The 2.1 Corsa felt alot more solid to drive and had alot more grunt everywhere than the flyweight 106.
Obviously being lighter and with stickier tyres and stiffer suspension the 106 is alot more agile.
The xsi box is the 2nd shortest FD available (4.3) on the sporty 106's after the S1 106 Rallye box. (4.54)

I knew that manifold would hamper things.... 
You should take the car out to RG's for a 220-230bhp result.
