How do you like the Dynamat?

***Nachos Libres*** · 03-10-2006, 05:06 AM

Sounds nice, can't wait for pics.

Muffnbluff · 03-10-2006, 07:34 AM

The dynamat was definitely worth it. Where the dynamat really shines is on the highway, it really kills alot of the wind/road noise at high speeds. Plus there's the benefit of the doors sounding a little more solid when you shut them.

Sounds good, looks good!

Yeah, how long did it take to do the doors. Thats something I'll probably do.

Nice list of mods, current and future.

One of the guys that works for my dad actually installed the dynamat and head unit and speakers for me. The dynamat didn't take too long, but I was scared I would screw it up, so I let someone else do it.

Muffnbluff · 03-23-2006, 08:03 AM

So I installed my cobb stage one last night and am very pleased. Man that sucker comes to life on the highway now. Can't wait for the cobb dp and a protune.

I also did my s203 interior paint job last weekend and I think I funked up the top trim piece...it kinda sticks out at the top now. I'll post some pics later tonight and see if anyone has some suggestions on how to fix it.

ALSO, my dad runs an airplane business and I think when I get my springs, tint and wheels all done I'm going to have the photographer that works for him take some pics out at the airport of the STi w/some planes and jets. If I'm really really lucky I could see if the guy at the hangar next to my dads has his P-51 that I could take pictures with. That would be freakin sweeeeeet.

Sorry, I only have access to the planes at my dads office. WIth luck they'll have a gulfstream in when I do it, but if not there's always a challenger and some nice king airs there. I really want a pic with that p-51 though, that thing is just downright gorgeous.
