There should be an "other" option so you can go with something slightly bigger at least 2.5". Don't know if it got mentioned but your catback will have no affect on spool time.

Definitely not true, your size exhaust "will" have affect on your spool time. I'm talking from personal experience. Think of it this way, try blowing really hard out of a coffee stirrer. Now, try blowing really hard out of a straw from Mc Donald's. Do you see how easy it is to blow through a straw than a coffee stirrer?

What I should have said is that his evf will have a greater effect on spool time than his catback. I'd at least go 2.5. Back pressure will just rob his gains. Spool time will be quicker on small pipes but at a cost to ultimate gains.

Vantage should not be trusted
3" crush bent, or 2.5" mandrel is perfect.

I've owned both exhausts ... I've said this before and I'll say it again ... there IS a JDM-spec greddy evo2 that is floating around. The piping for the midpipe does NOT have the bottleneck that the US-spec version has ... and the piping on the axleback is larger than the US-spec version. I've seen both of these exhausts in person, and they ARE different.

the US-spec version says "US-Spec" under the muffler.

too bad I sold my jdm spec version -_-;;

I would say get the JDM spec evo2 ... but if it's not the jdm spec version, get the RSR.

on turbo cars the exhaust noise gets muffled a lot with an aftermarket muffler...my friends gs-t eclipse was quiter than my non turbo eclipse when we had the same exhaust...i've heard turbo integras as being quieter than non turbo with headers/exhaust...my friends orange h22 turbo swaped accord makes less noise than my homies civic with exhaust only

generally speaking turbo cars almost never have exhaust sound issues. The turbo acts as a resonator.
