yeah, might be about right. intake really dosent give much benefit (under 10hp probably), but it does sound much better with a turbo. is your wastegate still same?

also, without a BASE dyno youll never really know. since your results can depend a lot on your climate and the machine you dyno it on. if you could have done a dyno stock, then put on the mods and tested again under the same conditions, on the same dyno, with the same operator, you might get a more accurate gain.

i wouldnt set my boost much higher than stock, given that is what your car is. i mean i guess you could let it hold a bit higher, but youll hit a ceiling of how far you can go on stock. and you DEFINATELY dont want to lean it out too much.
1 you have a S0 computer
2 you have stock fuel system and injectors
3 you do not have a wideband, or any way to monitor your a/f for that matter... you could potentially do ALOT of damage if you overboost it

dont get greedy!!! be patient and do it right, it will pay off in the long run

Don't forget, decals/stickers are good for about 1 or 2 hp each...............
