What are you using for sound deadening ?
Alright guy let's hear what you are/have used for sound deadening on your cars before or your frs/Brz now .
I am currently thinking of using B-quiet extreme because of its light weight and incredible reviews and pricing , 89.99 for a 50 sq-ft that weighs 15 lbs. I would consider dynamat but it's way too expensive for a full car deadening , maybe just for trunk to remove the bass rattle . Thanks in advance ! |

There are a ton of companies out there that all have very similar products. We use the Stinger Roadkill brand. One of the products they make is called "Overkill" and it is a thicker layer of sound deadening, but it is also light weight.

I looked at those before, for stinger quality they are very expensive , 12 sq-ft is 95$ .. For that price I might as well go with dynamat and forget the weight

You need more than just peel & stick to reduce noise, it's mainly for vibration dampening. I have a 68 sq ft roll of the MLV in my garage I may use, at least in some places. |

quite a bit, its not a quick job to do it properly. This is the type of job that if the price of mat alone bothers you then install price will be like a punch in the face. I would say buy it and do it your self, it isnt hard to do it just takes a long ass time. |

cruzinbill is dead on with his assessment,
The Sienna was a 29 hour job broken down into segments, labor rate ? The TC was 16 hours with the help of my older daughter (it is her car). Disassembly/reassembly is the easy part, lol |

Good thread.. I have never worked with any deadening before but just purchased a FRS and a Tundra - So I am thinking about giving deadening a shot while I have the car/truck stripped apart for their sound system upgrades.
I want to get some of the rattles and road noise out of the FRS, and the tundra is going to need a good amount of deadening because the system I am putting in will push 2000w of bass alone. Until then I will continue to browse around and learn more about deadening before I take the plunge.. |
