It's too early. I've run mfgo11 before and it's rating settled down around 1700 I think, just a little weaker than gnugo. So it is still rising (and being held back by a few loses to other programs that are still rising).
In testing, the monte carlo Many Faces beats mfgo version 11 over 95%, but only on a few dozen games. So 400 ELO improvement might be about right.
