I've recently started to look at them and enter the results on PT3. what's a good sample size for SnGs and tourneys? I only have 163 on PT3 for an average ROI of 89.88 does this mean anything? what should i be looking at? 163 = SnGs + tourneys (different levels) No idea here please be gentle!

I'd say you need 500+ SNGs at a high ROI to say you're a winning (rather than a losing) player and 2,000+ at any given level to be able to tell your ROI with any degree of accuracy (I haven't run the stats but I'd say +/- 10%). Nice results though!
