Default JDM R any faster?

Is the JDM R any faster than our USDM versions? I got some (jealous) haters bagging on my R just because it's not JDM. I would imagine it is somewhat faster though? JDM header and 16 inchers make a difference?

They run a bit faster since they have better gas (100+octane) in Japan and have a JDM 4-1 header and a smaller catalytic converter. I would assume you can get the car stripped too - thinner windshield, no a/c, no radio etc to lighten it a bit. So technically it would be a little faster but not by much.
