WOW.. very nice setup man. Big congrats. I can't believe how sweet the exhaust sounded after the HFC. The setup STILLEN G3 and Invidia was great but it was missing something. The second you installed the HFC, the sound just got soo much sweeter. It's simply perfect! As you've noticed, the sound level didn't go up as much after the HFC install which is great. I really like the drive by :drool:. I think the exhaust tip matches your paint as well. and last but not least, your informational video. If anyone looking into this setup (or simply looking for more options in 370z exhaust/intake system), they will find this video VERY helpful. You've covered pretty much EVERY angles in your video.

Thanks for taking your time and making the video/thread. rep point added as promised ;)

This setup gets Two :tup: :tup:

Thanks for the props AK! :tup:

I love this setup so much and I hope my video will provide the needed feedback and encouragement for others to buy this setup as well.

I know the Invidia Gemini crowd is small on here and ERZ is new on the market for 370Z HFC’s but I could not be happier with both in terms of the quality, sound and performance improvements!!!

And if anyone overlooked my one point….there is NO hiss with this setup.

OH...and I pulled the trigger on the Cobb AP tonight. Car will be dyno tuned in a 2 weeks.

I will post:

Nice review and video! I saw your vid before your post as i just uploaded a horrible video to you tube around the same time you did. I will be uploading some new stuff with my recent purchase of a tripod!

First thing i noticed was NO HISS!! I have been reading post after post and most have explained it to be an inherent problem with our engine. I was convinced that it was not the exhaust set up or HFC's but i think we have a credible reason to believe otherwise. I hope this is further looked into because i do not like my hiss at all, i feel it gives a cheap sound to a not so cheap set up. As i have just installed my HFC and gen 3s to go with my Stillen CBE i to will be creating a post with pics of the install and troubles my mechanic came across. There is a considerable amount of hiss in my setup which my soon to come post will detail.

Thanks again for the great review, you have tempted me to think about a different cat back after only having mine for a week, Cheers!

Thanks again for taking the time to do a very detailed review of your HFC, CBE, Intake setup. I really like the way the Invidia Gemini CBE sounds with the HFC's. Damn your car sounds sweet! :tup:

I was really having a hard time making a choice between Stillen, Invidia Gemini, and Berks. This review sealed the deal. I'll be purchasing the Invidia Gemini CBE in the next few weeks. I'm hitting the Drag Strip tonight to see how my Z performs with my current setup. Then I will head back to the track once I get the Invidia CBE installed to compare the difference between the stock exhaust. My wife is going to video so I will post the videos along with my time slips.

Jules 02-24-2010 07:19 PM

I think I'm going to go only with injen cai and invidia gemini for a start cause the stock 370 does not sounds as good as the 350 stock :(

So what would be your guess on how much whp you got now !

Your welcome dude...glad you found it valuable!!! And honestly...the video does not do it proper justice...sounds even more sick in real person.

You will no be unhappy with the Gemini... 950$, polished stainless steel, titanium tips, eliminates the Hiss of a HFC....CAN'T GO WRONG!! :happydance:
