4age 20v powerchip

if the 20v is 120kW standard how many extra kw would a powerchip give it?
also how many kw could i expect from doing the exhaust, extractors, pod filter, and the powerchip?
and then if i was to add a turbo int he future how many kW could i expect?
i was reading that the powerchip can be designed to me more responsive in low-mid range, would this be a good idea for the 20v as its kick ass in high revs. would it solve the low rev slackness?
i'm trying to learn as much as i can about the 20v, any help would be appreciated

As the 20v is such a highly strung engine from the factory its very difficult to get some sizeable powergains out of it.
With all the mods you suggested and a chip (if it needs it) you'd probably be looking at 130 - 135kw assuming you started with a 119kw silvertop.
But remember this only works if the mods are done properly

Try sticking some cams in THEN chipping it - certainly not gonna exactly improve bottom end, but hey small NA engines are always gonna struggle this way...

I used to have a Haltech on my silvertop (internally stock), and it was marginally faster than a standard one, but, nothing to get excited about.
