I'm running 216 BHP currently, so about a 20 BHP boost. The torque curve is much flatter too - this is what really helps.

They're 197 BHP stock as quoted, but many are a bit down on that - 185 BHP seems a common number. I expected about 20 BHP gain, so mine is probably one of the better engines, making close to stated power originally. So yes, the gain is about what I expected, but the driveability is the main benefit (and sound).
Decent candidate for an LS Swap?
Nah 2JZ, with booooooooost!

They are. Unfortunately someone liked mine a bit too much last night and decided to put a dent in my front passenger wing, cracking the paint. Gutted.
One of my favorite reviewers just did a segment (albeit short) on the Toyota 86, so it could well be worth a watch if you are looking at the car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZsmEcYqCsM

Not sure if it was here that I first saw it but thought it's worth posting in case someone found it amusing too.

Bare in mind that's the new facelift model. But similar to the old one
