Cabin noise

One thing I forgot to mention that might be of interest is that now I can actually hear the sound system, too - whereas before it was really contaminated by the road and tire noise. There was a major difference there, IMO.

Here is a good link to information on what to cover and how much to use from a guy that did a lot of product testing.

Sound Deadener Showdown - Your Source for Sound Deadening Products and Information

EDIT: this is not the original data he had posted years ago comapring all products on the market, seems to be selling his own stuff now. I think there is still some good info here though.

I can actually hear the engine better which to me would mean a better sports car experience..

I think your report is accurate Charlie. I dynamatted my doors and small areas of the hatch last week. Not a considerable difference, but it is noticeably quieter. I can hear my motor and speakers more. I may add more Dynamat along the rear speaker area if I decide to add rear speakers.
