Anyone one use dynomat or equivalent to reduce exhaust volume/drone?

Just wondering if anyone has done this to change the inside cabin drone/volume or tone.

Thanks.

Use dynomat extreme. Best bet is to buy the bulk pack off of ebay for under $100. You can probably do 2 cars with that. Its just not the amount but the specific locations you place it to have the best effect. Under the rear seats and also the trunk by the spare. Don't forget the door panels especially the rails inside. Makes a huge difference. for better speaker sound the rear deck is also recommended.

our cars weigh in the first place.

15lbs is marginal.

when you close it, it adds a nice "THUNK" like an expensive Benz. You can bust your ear drums the first time.

rattle. The car and sound so much better now that I did. You can stand near the trunk and hear no vibration. Open it and it get loud. It would most likely help in your situation considering how I use it in mine.

I would love to do this - could you give a little more direction on exactly where to put it and what panels to get it underneath? TIA

The car and sound so much better now that I did. You can stand near the trunk and hear no vibration. Open it and it get loud. It would most likely help in your situation considering how I use it in mine. __________________ Silver S4 for sale RIP OWK 2000 Audi S4 piggified stg3 2000 Audi S4 stock 2008 Triumph Daytona 674 SE
