HP rating Q?

2007 Mazda 3s HB
I remember that when the 3 came out, the 2.3 was rated at 160 HP. I've since seen ratings of 156, and 153. I have recently bought a 2007 3s HB, so where am I in the ratings? It's a 2.3, and not a 2.3 PZEV, and it's a Nevada car. Don't get me wrong, it leaves my old MP5 automatic "tied to a pole," but I'm just curious.
 
I think they changed the way HP is rated and under the 'new formula' HP ratings went down a bit across the industry
