Engine Performance - Computer Upgrade Recall

I went for my regular service today at my Mazda dealership for my 2007 RX-8 GT A/T. They told me that there was a recall for the computer software to be updated for the engine that gives it more horsepower. It did add a little boost. Has anyone else had this service done? I want to know what the horsepower is now. It was 212 before, and it feels like it may have helped with the torque too. Does anyone have any numbers? Thanks!
