There is no power increase due to that alone. The power increase
from 110/115hp to 130hp is due to the increased displacement from
2.2 to 2.3 liters, and an increase in CR from 8.x:1 to 10.x:1.
The 2.3 NF engine has two forms, the early one has the injectors in
the head, and the later ones with the two piece intake manifold
with injectors mounted to the manifold. Both variants make 130hp.

Good question. I haven't looked to verify this, but the heads themselves
have different part numbers...
