I'm considering a stage one tune in comparison that is quite a lot more expensive although the gains with the tune are definitely more "guaranteed"..

I don't know, I really doubt in the real world you will see a noticeable improvement with this intake. The dyno conditions are very different than real world driving.
N55 is really limited by the stock turbo. It struggles in the upper RPM range because of the smaller turbo. The S55 stock intake is quite similar I think and those make a lot more power, because of the turbo change.
Even a tune alone without other mods might not get you 20 HP across the entire range, but I bet a tune is more effective than this intake.
