hp gain w/cat back?

i was just wondering what kind of hp gain would i be looking at i have 89rs 305tbi basicly stock just got open air thing done and transgo shift kit and the 80 series muffler no cat back. If i got the flowmaster cat back and gutted the cat or removed it completely i would gain about how much hp. And slp headers would then add aproximatly how much hp. Thanx for ure help these estimates can be at the fly wheel.

I am not too sure about horsepower numbers. But I can say that my cat-back reduced my 1/4 ETs by .3 and then when I installed the headers they went down by another .4, I do have the stock cat non-gutted though.
