I have heard a few others and they are no where near as loud as mine (not that i think this is a good thing). I've been to some Z meets and everyone always asks wtf I have done as the car is loud as hell. It's much louder than my old wrx with 3inch DP, and 3inch full exhaust.

Maybe I have some freak invidia? I should try to make a video to compare, but really. The invidia is quite loud on my car....

I was referring to the exhaust alone. I assumed that OP wanted input on the exhaust, not +test pipes or hfc or intakes etc. i'm sure test pipes with invidia is plenty loud for a lot of peepz =D

Well, I have an 08 350Z with Gemini and just added FI resonated HFC. I can tell you THIS set up is amazing. Not loud when you don't want it to be...idling..driving slowly in a parking garage...cruising. On the gas..it's another ANIMAL. Aggressive..BOLD sound, but NOT RASPY..NO HISS..NO DRONE at all. Perfect match for the Gemini..*wakes it up* to another level.
For the OP..Gemini is very nice...if you don't want loud, but a step above stock. I wouldn't advise adding a TP to this though...either HFC or, as I have done, a RESONATED HFC.

I could write the same thing about my Berk HFC/CBE setup. This validates Red_Zed's comment above that there is virtually no difference between the two.
