Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

data researching: 130 whp on my MY02 RS, good number?

whp = wheel horepower

actually that sounds pretty good considering the drive train loss. I suspect your in the 180's hp wise.

A lot of that depends on the dyno make, and who's running it. I had an EJ25 that didn't quite make the 100whp list from Easystreet Motorsports' dyno, but had a CAI, Headerback exhaust w/hi flow cat, and underdrive pullies.

you have a nice list of mods on the car but it don't see any engine management to make use of them. The ECU on these cars is perfectly happy to limit out any gains you would have seen on the mods just by limited A/F ratios.

Cams definitely help cars but i've heard of smog problems in my state CA at least with them.
