Peak power gains will be small a few bhp & lbft at the most, the major benefit from a good chip will be the improved throttle response, sharper & crisper midrange power range.  just by having an added 4bhp/4lbft over 95% of the power range will transform the car.

I can confirm all Nick has said above!
Makes the car far more driveable.
