Default Skill difference between $20 and $100 MTTīs?

According to officialpokerrankings.com I have a ROI of 152% on a little over 200 tourneys on Stars (mostly MTTīs). My average buyin is $20.
Have heard that itīs not the most accurate place to read results from, but unfortunately I am not very good at keeping record myself. However if this is correct I know that it should be about 200%, deals included. So I have a couple of questions.
How many tourneys do you need to play to be able to calculate an EV for MTTīs? Iīm thinking thousands of thousands.
And how likely would I be to survive on $100 average buyin if I actually had an ROI of 200% on $20? How big is the skill difference?

Generally, if one buyin is bigger than another by a factor of x, your ROI will be x times smaller. So x = 100/20 = 5, so ROI should be about 150/5 = 30%

A related question for people who jumped from $50 tourneys to the $200 range: Did you mix them in and do it gradually, or did you just take the plunge?

You will run into a lot stiffer competition in this spot, you must play for yourself to see though. No one can just give you numbers on it because they will vary for everyone
