My SiR-G swap pulls pretty nicely with just intake and cat-back exhaust. Planning to get a 4-1 header as a xmas present for myself hehe...

Back to the point... the type r has a little more top end and revs a bit higher, torque is nearly as same as the sir-g. If you have the money, go with the type r but if not then the sir-g is quite sufficient.

Get the ITR engine right off the bat. You'll quickly spend the difference in price on bolt-ons for the GSR and still not have the power of the ITR engine.
