Even with the 50mm throttle body? (I think that is what he said for throttle body size)

I'm running stock throttle body w 109/122

I was told by many very well known builders including Scott that the stock TB, although it could use some "cleaning up" is good for about 130 HP

That may be TECHNICALLY "correct", but since Harley itself includes the 58mm throttle body in its Stage 4 race kit, and since that throttle body is expensive and adds a lot of cost to the kit, I don't think they would have included it unless the improvement over the 50mm throttle body is notable.

I saw the price for the 58mm throttle body the other day in the Sreamin' Eagle catalog, and it was something like $500 as a separate purchase!!
