I don't have a GT35R but I have the HKS Hi-Power TBE, and it is quiet. BTW,I think it's TOO QUIET !!! I like 'em LOUD like my Tanabe Racing Medallion on my Eclipse.... If want a quiet
exhaust, then yes the Hi-Power should satisfy your needs. Adding the GT35R is going to make it a lil'bit louder but not by much IMHO....

I have the Hi-Power but not the turbo-kit. The Hi-Power is probably one of the quietest exhausts out there but it has a nice sound on WOT.

I have the Hi-power as well and agree with the above.

Very quiet with the stock turbo. I like it that way.

I gained 25whp with my Hi-Power, HKS Downpipe, and tune. I feel like most was from the tune, not the exhaust.

just purchased a AMS GT35RL kit. I have the HKS carbon on right now. Once I put it on, I'll try to post up a sound clip.

There is about a 5-6 whp difference between the HKS and Buschur TBE..

The various neck-downs and resonator, and huge muffler add to the restriction...

I would like to know how it sounds with a bigger turbo too...
