yes they will "fit"

your tip is bolted on right now with a smaller tip on the inside. you can just unbolt the outter tip and weld the ITR tip on, since they are welded onto the muffler to begin with.

the type r has a more free flowing muffler, so yes it does sound different than the GSR or LS muffler.

But, any decent gains from switching from stock GSR?

Amazingly, Type R exhaust are only $350 from passwordjdm. Id hit it if it offered similar gains to other aftermarket exhaust out there.

haha, "better aftermarket exhaust systems" = $500 +

I'll just sacrifice my 1-2 whp gain for a savings of $150 or so
