Im not an expert buy any sense
However,
I dont think youll notice too much
Unless you went to
A lot higher compression
Cam upgrade
And head work
At that cc
Upgrade
I think you will notice
A nice upgrade with what you have already.
With A stage two cam upgrade
Exhaust upgrade
And then intake
air box upgrade
and tune with what
you have already
Just my opinion
And Im out ..

Stock 114 is at 10.5:1 compression, stock 117 is at 10.25:1...most kits put over bores at 11:1, will you see corresponding differences, sure, nothing earth shattering. Stock 114 shares a cam designed first for the 107 so going to a 117 without a cam change will not give anything you're looking for. As mentioned, a stage 2 will be the biggest change, and then going to a 117 or stage 3 will give some extra but not the same big bang for the buck as the stage 2
