I am the kind of person who likes really loud exhausts (not the high-pitched sound but the deep growl sound...like a Tanabe Super Racing Medallion). However, I would sacrifice a loud exhaust for one that gave me better horsepower and torque gains.
I was wondering if anyone could give me some basic information on the exhausts (like tip diameter, B-pipe diameter, loudness, weight, and horsepower/torque gains) so that I can make up my mind. The exhaust systems that I am looking at are...
---JIC Bullet (stainless and titanium)
---Mugen Twin Loop (full stainless???)
---Tanabe Ultra Racing Medallion (stainless and titanium)
Thanks again for all of your help!

First of all, I think you meant to say H22A Accord R. That is one nice stock motor. It is almost identical to the h22 type-s motor...
Anyway, the mugen twin loop is super silent and very good exhaust... The tanabe is louder... I have nore heard a JIC... Get something you like...
Are you doing the swap yourself? It is by no means an easy swap...
