Re: howmuch HP gain can straight piping exhaust system produce? (NUR-21U)
it all depends on the setup. Most perf. mufflers(exhaust systems) say between 5-15 Hp. I dont see that being true, but then again, dynos tell all right?? Are you going to run a cat. converter?? basically youll have more backpressure, louder much louder, and lots of "spit" from the exhaust meaning running rich.

A couple HP to the wheels over a proper exhaust system with a high flow cat and a catback.

not enough to deal with the migrane you will get after sombody smashes you in the head with a bat! But it is fun setting off car alarms.

it will free up some top end but say goodbye to any low end you had before getting rid of all of your backpressure.

What low-end, it's a B16A2...
I would say anywhere from 2-10 HP from cat-back exhaust...

Re: howmuch HP gain can straight piping exhaust system produce? (all stock)
Depends on how much you spend. $ = HP.
Example.
Greddy exhaust - 2hp
Fujitsubo exhaust - 8hp
Big price difference.
