Default HP increase with fuel plate adjustment

I recently replaced my timing gear housing and at the same time I checked the position of my fuel plate.My truck still has the original plate and I moved it completely forward.I am wondering if anyone would have any idea as to how much more power the truck would now have.It was originaly rated at 175 HP.This is in a 1995 Dodge.I have noticed an increase in the boost pressure.

An auto, no it's gonna be hurting. A 5spd, baby the clutch and you'll be ok for a while.
