nickers Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 im taking on my dads porsche build and i want a lightweight deadner, probably second skin... also id like to use as little as possible i dont want to do the entire floor and all the panels, so along with which deadner to use id like to know the best places to use the deadener? engines in the back so id assume id do the back tray and wall behind the seats.

6berry Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 your best bet would probably be to use a layer of damplifier on each panel then put luxury liner on the back wall if you need more sound dampening Quote 1999 Audi A4 1.8T::: 4 - DC Level 3 10's in a 4th order Rockford P6002 on Subs for now (3-3.5k coming eventually) MB Quart ONX4.60 for Mids and Highs Boston S50 Components in Front Boston S65 Coaxials in Rear 40 Sq Ft of Second Skin Damplifier Build Thread UBL 1948 Plymouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrot Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 ill be watching this one close to see what you go with. i dont have a porche or even close but my older supra is a heavy beast as is and i wanna pull all the old deadner and use something very light to replace it since im already adding a ton of weight in the stereo dept...good luck and let us know how it goes.

nickers Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 what about that alpha damp. it may be heavier but apparently it can dampen a panel all in a small under square foot mat. the goal is not to go all out with deadner, being conservative on the deadner to keep weight down while using the deadner in the most effective way. the luxury liner is a mass loader so i was thinking not using it. i was thinking damplifier and some overkill over top. i know i posted this in second skin but the product doesnt have to be second skin, im looking for any lightweight effective non shit deadner.

Skullz Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Best bet would be to sparingly use some Damplifier and then use a layer of the heat wave to help with any extra noise.

Second Skin Rep Jon Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) Damplifier would be your best bet at this point and time. Clocking in at .35 pounds per square foot, no other product out there can match it's performance to weight ratio. Alpha Damp will probably be your second choice (when it's released). It will weigh a bit more, but perform better. Just like what other people said, 25%-50% coverage is all you should ever really need but this is especially true when you are trying to save weight. Of course I always like to ask, would you like a sampling of Damplifier and or Damplifier Pro so you can check it out?

Of course it's free! If I can send samples to the middle east for free, our neighbors to the north isn't an issue at all. Just PM or email me your address (check sig link for my email) and I'll get it sent off tomorrow. Quote Have a question about Second Skin? E-Mail me!

nickers Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) DECENT! EDIT: yep i feel pretty stupid as i can see it says "free sample" in your sig *facepalm*. pm sent anyways back to the concept of using overkill and damplifier. should i use overkill over the whole floor like most people do with deadener mats? of course the damplier would be under the overkill. haha under the over.
