Is this about right?

I haven't had my 1994 WRX long, its standard apart from a Down-Cat back exhaust system which is as fat as i've ever seen!, the centre cat is de-catted.
I've got all the service history and it had a cambelt change about 5000 miles ago.
Standard they're are 240bhp?
From this exhaust am what sort of horse power am I likely to have gained.
I did a 0-60 with a stop watch and was getting around 5.2seconds, and my 30-70 through 2nd to 3rd gear was 4.7 seconds, is this about right?

Those power and 0-60 figures seem about right, 0-60 on a WRX in good condition should be between 5-5.5 seconds depending on certain variables.
De cat centre section should release around 5-10 BHP on a good day, down pipe de cat should give another 15-20BHP tops.

So I'm probably around 250bhp with the cat gone, and the fact the the new exhaust is a lot larger piping than standard?
Going to decat down pipe then maybe looking around 270+?
These WRX are well rapid on acceleration!!!!
Makes my old Celica GT4 look like an Ice cream van with the gayest music playing and no ice creams!
