One of the more important things I do have to attend to is sound insulation.

I want to make sure that most of the noise is reduced as much as possible.

What can you suggest? What have you done to your cars?

Dynamat or lizard skin might be your best option, personally I don't think the cordia's make that much noise, my AC is quiet as a mouse.

Hehe I know Travis but I have to consider misses and kids. I am not 19 anymore hehe

Mine used to be loud back in a day, always “clutch in” when cops were around.

I will have a look on ebay, dynamat is very good but expensive.

I have been using flash for years, doesn't smell, peel off or cost you a lot of money. Use this to box off your doors to add mid bass to your front stage. Also works well in tight areas.

In addition to flash.... factory ford sound deadening sold at Bayford is a great product at approx $40 per square meter. A heat gun is required for installation but once installed it is amazing! Use this for larger areas as it hard to shape around tight bends. It is normally hard but softens considerably with a heat gun. Great for wheel wells, floor and rear quarter panels.

Lastly, Thin mattress overlays are great for inside panels, door cards, roof linings and stuff like that. Here is an example: http://www.clarkrubber.com.au/comfort-p ... rlays.html.

For my car audio installs I use a combination of these and have great success.

Do not over dampen as things start to get a little unnatural, especially if you are doing this for audio.

Enjoy!
