What were Gohan's expectations of SPC?

[Natasha Romanoff]

I mean, when he returned to Earth, Gohan knew that Cell has powered up, but how much of a power up did he expected him to get? It's clear that he didn't had a grasp at how strong he actually has gotten as he admitted by himself that Cell's power has gone up more than he thought after getting his arm shattered.




I personally have:
Perfect Cell = 1
SPC (Gohan's mind) = 1.2 - 1.25
SSJ2 Gohan = 1.66

I think ssj2 gohan felt comfortably ahead of cell, like 1.5x gap

 

[SSJ2]

It must have been a case of emotion throwing off his ability to sense Ki accurately. Gohan had full confidence in his ability to avenge Goku even after Cell stated that he had powered up.

He was likely expecting Cell to be between his Power Weighted level and where SPC actually was.

Most likely, he expected 1.25x an increase, and Cell got 1.5x an increase.
