Well 160 is a complete guess. I seriously suggest going to a dyno and running the car. It usually costs something like $60 or so for 3 pulls and a print out.

Factory specs of what? The B16 motor, or the stock motor from your vehicle which came in the car originally?

Drivetrain loss mainly. It usually accounts for about a 10-20% loss when comparing crank HP and wheel HP.

The B16 is rated at about 160hp/120tq. To the wheels, maybe 140/100. Adding those mods made a gain of no more than 20whp. That is an extremely high guess though.
