Almost nothing.

Mugen claims stiffer rubber, but nobody has been able to tell the difference with each one in hand. However, nobody has taken a durometer to both of them either.

Buy the OE bushings; they're significantly cheaper. 52385-S21-003 for all applicable models except '90-93 Integra.

Mugen apparently no longer makes the DA trailing arm bushings, because I can't find them on the King Motorsports web site. Thus, the OE 52385-SK7-N01 bushings are your only choice. They are about $60/ea at an Acura dealer, or $105 + shipping for the pair through King Motorsports.
