After some deliberation I came up with this list based on the figures I have, would like to know if it is decent in any way and what changes would be suggested

I'd drop one of the lt horse units & take more fortifications.

I was fooling around with Later Ottoman, once again based on what I own (and it is a lot due to the Napoleonic Turks I collected ages ago)

This is what I came up with - overwhelm them with loads of shooty, crappy cav. I am even considering taking some of the spahis poor to fit in another unit. When you get chearged in the flank it doesn't matter if poor guys did it. The theory here is that most 800 pt armies I have seen so far usually only have 5-6 units of cav, you have double that.

I agree with Stephen Callahan. Additionally, in my experience Poor Azap foot is worthless; if you can avoid using them, do so -- if you can't, put them behind FF, or do your best to get them onto a flank or rear, or leave them in your own rear as "camp guards."

As for battlegroup size, I felt that 4-element blocks of any of the mounted felt "weak," & so I'm inclined to run 6-element BGs instead.

FWIW, OP, I very much like all that artillery in your list

Additionally, I would consider dropping one of the battlegroups of skirmishing light foot, or perhaps even both. I think that overall fortifications would be more useful than skirmishing foot, in this period at least -- especially if you plan on fighting western horse. Traditionally the Ottomans placed their artillery behind fortifications anyway.
