Any end can will fit as long as the link pipe is the right size to attached to your downpipes but be aware that the bigger the bore, the more air is escaping the engine so if you go really extreme you may need a remap but if you buy one with road legal baffles then you should be fine as they usually make the hole a lot smaller.
The exup on the gen 2 is just an emissions thingy so no worries about losing it. Doesn't do a thing.

As for which ones to buy, really anything that's not a Chinese copy should be fine. Companies like black widow make nice but very loud exhaust. Ixil look very cool. Scorpion, akraprovic and yoshimura are the coveted golden boys but you'll pay big bucks.
Personally I'd type 'fz1 exhausts' into ebay and take a look at all the different types then just see what you like the look of. Anything is going to look and sound better than the standard one ?


:agree
A sensible voice from the crowd, Foc Yoshi and Akra!
As said, a stainless steel can is a stainless steel can, and the same goes for titanium or carbon just buy the design you want not the fancy costly name, if you can afford one with a popular badge on it all well and good ,but as said its a tube with a hole through it, save yourself a shed full of money and buy a set of braided brake lines with what you saved and a set of heated grips for the winter.
I bought a Pipewerxs can and am very pleased with it, Pipewerxs also make a slightly cheaper line but I damned if I can remember the name, about 15 to 20% cheaper but definitely no difference in quality.

Lots of Stainless Steel cans on eBay. 

If you want to make it look the dogs bollocks try one of these.

Stick one of the Yoshimura badges on it and your mates will be envious.
