Default 1992 Civic CX with a H23A DOHC VTEC Swap----->Exhaust Question...

Hello!
I have a 1992 Honda Civic CX Hatchback that I am currently swapping a 2000 Honda Accord SiR H23A DOHC VTEC engine into. I was looking into a few different exhausts for my car, but I'm finding out that I can't make up my mind.

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!

Planning on heavy mods? Light mods?

First of all, I guess Tanabe doesn't make an application of the Ultra Medallion to fit the 1992-1995 Civic Hatchback. They only make the Super Racing Medallion, which I have previously owned (and loved) on my 1994 Civic EX.

Right now the only mods that I have are an ACT clutch, ACT ProLite flywheel, Random Technologies high flow cat, AEM cold air intake, JDMShit chipped P28 ECU, and a Quaife limited slip differential.

I do plan on doing many more mods in the future, but as of right now that is all of the stuff that I have.
