6-8 HP.
But I do recommend doing both test pipes and and exhaust. They work very well together. 11-16 HP!

Yes, you can use the 5/16" spacer and MREV2 with a turbo kit no problem.
If you are talking about the turbo kit, the answer completely depends on the tune and build of your engine. Any of them can stress (or not stress) the engine. There is no definite answer available here.

5/16" is a nice mod IMO. Works very well across the band. That and a better intake is a good start.
If you plan to stay NA then pick a good cat-back exhaust solution that is hassle free and legal. (Stillen, Fast Intentions, etc.) THEN get the ECU reflashed, etc. for even more gain, drivability, (better a/f ratio with your new exhaust.)
I would also perk up the suspension, starting with sway bars which will do more to improve handling for the same level of go performance. Should keep it sweet. A strut bar is a good choice for the money.
Do basic changes like this first. It's cheaper and gives you a better all around performer. Tighter and more responsive. From that point you can decide if you want to go FI sometime in the future.
Only caution, if you do think you will go FI in the future pick the exhaust that will work best with it with little compromise in your everyday driving with no turbo or sc. You don't want to replace a whole exhaust system if you don't have to. But will probably want lower restriction cats if you do strap on a blower, etc.
