Help:Re pension payments

Hi
I wonder if any one can help me as I don't know how to work it out. I would like to know how much extra I would get in my pay packet if I wasn't contributing into a pension scheme.

Basic (4 weekly) £1980
PAYE £319
NI £151
Pension £90

Tax code 458L

    less than £70. I believe the pension amount is deducted before N.I. and income tax are calculated, so if not spent on a pension the £90 will attract deductions.
