At it's peak, MAYBE 75hp. Sell the head unit, keep the brackets and find a S-trim.

You answered your own question. An A-trim upgraded to a S-trim IS a S-trim.

This is a good upgrade. As John mentions, it will be a true S-trim after that and capable of putting out more boost. You will need to make sure to use a bypass valve and also upgrade your fuel system appropriately if you crank up the boost. The a-trim kit doesn't come with most of those components.
