You should probably see around 18 odd mb with the conditions at the moment. Sky's max upstream is 1.3mbps.

Edit: If your speed doesn't increase to the max attainable by the end of DLM's training period, then call up sky and they'll see how much more you can push out.

Re: New sky connection - Can anymore be squeezed out?

Incase anyone is keeping their eye on this thread i got home today to find my stats had increased once again.

ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 18010 kbps 1146 kbps
Line Attenuation 17 db 7 db
Noise Margin 11 db 7 db

with a downstream noise margin of 11 can that not go even higher?

Yes, I would imagine you will touch the 20mb mark.
