If you have an SI Monte Carlo, this pipe will work but needs the rear mount relocated.
Performance wise, I used this to replace the old rusty pipe on an otherwise stock bike. Gained a small amount of torque and maybe 1mph on the top end.

Pedal clearance issues

Bought 2 of these for my Ciao's and the pedal sprocket rested/touched the side of the pipe even though its squished. Using a hammer and a piece of wood I hammered it back/bent it to the kickstand and now sprocket clears. If you are not willing to do the work buy the Giannelli (with the crome plate) version of this pipe.

new favorite pipe

such a rad pipe. total ripper 100% blast pipe. so good in fact, that i tossed my calibrata in the trash. great for single speed
have this on a 43mm dr evo, polini head, 13:13, drilled out intake and opened rotary patch, mazzi crank and it flies still! went from a giannelli pipe (which ripped) to this and the top speed is maybe 2mph slower. plus the low end is so wicked that i was able to ditch my black malossi clutch springs and use some stock olympia ones. no more burning out malossi pads in like 700 miles.
my only gripe is that it took some persuading to mount... had to bend it down a lil and tweak it in the smushed sections.

Not OEM

Got this for my Bravo. Does not fit like OEM. Had to do a bit of "flexing" to get it on. The angle on the header needs to be slightly wider. Scratched it a bit because "flexing" also involved bumping up against other parts of the bike.
Fortunately, all the scratches hide once it is installed. It looks good, sounds good, and seems to give my bike a bit more pep with the throttle. Won't know for sure how much until I GPS it.
