This sounds about right, generally the last or close to the last year of a turbo model, they usually commemorate it with a higher HP version model. I don't think the X50 upgrade is really worth the price, there are many reputable tuners getting over +100 Hp relatively easily. If you are willing to spend over $17K for the X50 upgrade, you can get into the 600Hp range with ohter reputable tuners.
