What setup would be good to reduce the noise from 100db to 40db but not loosing power.

you obviously don't know how loud normal conversation is.. but i appreciate your intentions 
2.5" is a good size for the exhaust.
what you need are good quality, gound sound absorbig mufflers etc.. that doesn't mean expensive.
i would recommend that you use 2 GOOD resonators.. ie stamped holes, and not louvred. put one near the end of the tuned length section of the engine pipe/collector... then another just before the diff (under rear seats).
then get a large cahmbered reverse flow muffler.. usually the biger the chambers, the lss restrictive it is inside and the grater the capacity of sound absorbtion... and will lower the pitch, without sounding like a wanker with a cannon.... of course this is a massive generalisation and many cheap mufflers are crap...
anyways.. i think ESA (exhaust systems australia) make cheap mufflers ($50 for 2") and resonators ($25 for 2") and worked very well on my 4K. i think it would work well on a GZE that doesn't rev as high...
alternatively, speak to a good exhaust shop (ie one that knows their shit, and aren't just out to sell you something wanky... i recommend australias best mufler and tyre service), and ask them to recommend something good, not just cheap of bling....
