Looks like you killed quite a bit of flex with just one layer.

Was that Hushmat you had up top before the Damplifier Pro was in place?

I think Steve Micks does a similar thing with his cruise control.

just to get this straight that is one trunk pack on the roof?

I am doing the roof of mine with the door pack

No sir, the hushmat is black and on all 6 doors. Thats what we carry at my shop. The stuff was alright I guess, but it wasnt the foil backing so I didnt care for it to much, and the Damplifier pro seemed a tad thicker and stiffer.

Are you referring to these 4 pieces?

That is from the factory, its cardboard with a foil top and a gummy adhesive, I pulled it off because parts of it was barly stuck on the roof.

Yes! the trunk pack only had enough to do from my B pillars back. from my A pillars forword the roof is doubled up, really solid. It didnt pay for me to waste deadening material where it wouldnt serve any purpose. When ever i get extra cash, Im sure ill do the spot from my A pillars to the window..

Your hoe is a bit newer, but I dont think the door pack will get too much done for you, Id really look where the most flex is (prob towards the middle between the B and C pillars) and concentrate on that first.

Opps, forgot to add that my 2 spl dynamics ext-3000d's arrive tomorrow after spending $625 for repair work at Db-r electronics.

Hopefully the wire I bought arrives tomorrow too so I can get them in. Tho I think the one kid I bought wire from is being a bit shady/flakey and is gonna run with my money and not ship me the wire.

Plan is to run the amps at .75 ohms nominal, expecting a good 3500-4000 wrms outta each amp.

What about 150.1's? they seem to be pretty stong, I guess not enough, but I know spl dynamics will kill

lmao the whole roof flexes but I think I will take your advice and put it in between the b and c pillar.

at first I was thinking of putting it up front because thats where it will be audibly noticeable.

and why does it say RF and Fi on your thread?
