Hi Joseph,
If you use ':results raw', then the results will be inserted without the
surrounding '='. You will need to pull the latest git head as I just
fixed a bug regarding that. So you could use
src_R[:results raw]{1+1}
but to make it less clumsy you could configure
org-babel-default-inline-header-args, e.g.
(setq org-babel-default-inline-header-args
(org-babel-merge-params org-babel-default-inline-header-args '((:results
. "raw"))))
after which
\begin{equation}
1 + src_R{1+1} = 3
\end{equation}
exports to latex as
\begin{equation}
1 + 2 = 3
\end{equation}
As for the default behaviour, the == declares that the contents should
be formatted fixed-width on export. Normally in latex export that
results in \texttt{}, but I see that inside a begin_equation the ==
remain. I wonder whether that could be argued to be an org-mode latex
exporter bug?

Hmm, I'm not seeing a problem here. It works for me with both png and
pdf output. E.g.
#+begin_src R :file z.pdf :width 20 :height 40 :exports both
plot(1:10)
#+end_src
What image format (i.e. R graphics device) are you using? Can you post
an example block that is not working? The values for :width and :height
will be passed straight on to the graphics device, so their meaning
depends on which graphics device is being used in R.

I'm not sure what you mean by "R graphics output quality". The section
"Graphical output" in
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/languages/org-babel-doc-R.php
describes how to pass arguments to the R graphics devices. In addition
to the ones that org-babel knows about like :width, you can pass
arbitrary extra arguments to the R device using :R-dev-args.

You mean using org-babel or just using R?
Hope that helps.
