Im not saying he did a bad job, but no way would I tune it to 12.1AFR on pump gas, not even with a front mount, it is just to knock prone. With basic mods such as up pipe, down pipe, exhaust, intake or panel filter, fuel pump all the STI's I have done make anywhere from 220kw to 240kw. I road tune, then if the customer wants to hire a dyno in their area I go with them and try to extract more power if need be. You should be good for 22psi boost at 11.1 - 10.8 with abit more timing than at 12.1AFR. Making more hp and safe temps.

I would say in all fairness you would be in the 5k ball park, that is assuming new pistons, rods, machining, gaskets, water pump, seals, tensioner etc and labour
As said early, a forged rebuild can be cheaper than an OE rebuild
