I think 20whp for the bulk of the powerband on an aftermarket, stock-frame turbo would be what I would hope for, but WITH the TB, not just the IM (that makes no sense to me).

On a stock turbo car, peak power may not be affected much but I'd bet that the powerband would be improved similar to this test that was published a few weeks ago:
