arent the figures on the superchips website quoted as not on overboost therefore they make the claims look better?

This is similar to what I had to tell my insurance company about the MP215, basically they were happy to insure it as modified with up to 10% increase in power, with engine management (I think they refer to it as chipping) and air filter. There was a bit of confusion about just how much power it has because of overboost, but I think they only care about the percentage increase and what has been done to the engine, I may be wrong though.

So should I be declaring the 16bhp increase or 31bhp do you reckon?

I would just call and talk to them about it, each insurance company might deal with these things differently. From the figures in your first post that's a 25% increase in power, so really all the need to know is that, and that it's a remap I think.

Edit: or was that 31 bhp increase comparing it to the the standard car without overboost? If it's actually +16 bhp on overboost then that's a 13% increase.

Really not sure mate I'll phone them sometime this weekend

I agree with Phil I think they would be comparing standard output with modified output without overboost. I would avoid confusion by mentioning overboost and keep a printed copy of the SCC power ratings to back up what you have said in case of any disputes in the future.

So with over boost stock output would be 139bhp then
