I'd wait a while and go with the Ansa System. I understand they will be back
in production by this summer. They are inexpensive , last forever and I
think  they have a great sound, not nearly as loud as the Monzas.

> I installed the Rimmer Bros. "sport" dual muffler system.  Delivered to
Va.  it was about 300.00 (minus the header)  I was disappointed to discover
that while the quality was good, the fit was easy, the mufflers are just
plain straight-through glass packs.  They have a nice resonance at idle,
sound good over 3000 rpm, but the sound is obnoxious under load around
2000-3000 rpms.  If I were to replace this, I'd look at the Bell, or go to
stock system in stainless
