Looks like you've been busy!

I'm not looking forward to my sound deadening project down the road. Luckily, it's pretty low on my priority list right now. I know that even a little bit makes a big difference, so you should be in great shape now.

so it looks like you removed that rear metal bracing behind the rear seats and replaced it with a flag pole?

is that the start of a roll cage?

I heard that every 10 pounds you gain (or lose) in a car it's like loosing (or gaining) 1 horse power... so that's about 5 or 6 pounds down the drain already..

Obviously all claims like that are very dependent, but I've heard 100lbs equals 0.1 seconds in the quarter.

Is that dynamat or some similar, and cheaper alternative that does the exact same thing? I am curious because Dynamat is expensive.

I heard that outside doing the trunk area , the benefits diminish (in the rx8). I am doing research to put my system together and would love others that have experience to chime in. Nice job SE, thanks for sharing.
