The original exhaust (banana) is considered to be a very good unit, much better than the Monza. If you like the 4 pipes out of the Monza it's another question.
Put whatever one you feel like, at worst, it's 2 gaskets and 6 bolts to be changed afterwards. And yes the Monza is pretty loud, if you can take it good but it gets you tired on long trips. Mihai |

Monza's will be a little buzzy and loud. Are you talking stock 1.7/1.8 or 2.0? If 2.0 - I'd leave it stock, they clean up real well and you can paint them with cold galvanizing paint for an OEM finish - looks sharp. If 1.7/1.8 I'd probably go with something like a bursch style personally.
