Asic Equivalent Logic of a Stratix 2 design

Hi, How could I know the equivalent number of Asic Standard Cell of a Stratix 2 design: 250 Aluts 169 Logic register 2 PLL Is it correct to say that 1 ALUT equals 4 logic gates and 1...

Note this has nothing directly to do with gates. A 6-input XOR gate uses more gates than a 6-input AND gate. Arithmetic mode(using the carry-chain) adds more gates. Control signals to the registers(clock enables, synchronous loads, etc.) adds more gates. You can get in the ballpark with this, but remember that's about it.
