+45... read correct

Not saying you'll end up with a rocket fast car but you get the idea. Like I said... even if you get +10 or 15hp more, it certainly won't be the same car So much more responsive, cheaper in petrol, etc etc etc

Not necessarily cheap but still, not that super expansive considering /hp gains for just a small tweak lol
It is very easy to generate 50-100HP increases on the Turbo cars with a re-flash and some exhaust system changes; it is one Hell of a lot harder (and more expensive) to get 25HP out of a normally aspirated version.
