I believe I’d just weld that shut before I went through the hassle of swapping it.

They are a direct bolt in option.

So you don’t like seeing at night or what? lol

It’s just the tuning.

There’s definitely a point of diminishing returns on CLD coverage but I bought 4 bulk packs and I’m also a little old school and overkill never hurt anything. It’s all personal preference. Having it done in a shop...I can’t imagine what that would cost. I have about $800 in materials...figure a...

Last area so far was the rear panels from the b-pillars back. There’s a lot of stuff under there that had to be removed for access to the outer skin. CLD was used to add mass to the rear ac ducting then they were wrapped with 1/8” CCF. 1/4” CCF was used everywhere possible along with Tessa tape...

Doors were next. Fully gutted, 100% CLD on inner and outer skins as well as where possible on interior panels. 1/4” CCF, butyl and Tessa tape was used on everything that could present a rattle or vibration.

Figured I’d put this all in one place in case people wanna see what’s behind the interior panels. My audio system gear is evolving...trying to keep cost reasonable but still play in the high end of things. Right now the plan is: Nav TV Zen A2B interface Helix DSP Pro with Director controller...

That’s literally all it is. The oems work with different brands, get input on the tuning and maybe if they’re lucky some input on driver placement then the oems take it from there. Every B&O speaker in an ST is labeled Ford.

Yea...he went 10.9x

I was working on my sound deadener project today and pulled the sub enclosure out so I figured I would slap some scrap CLD on it to see if it would improve things. The oem plastic enclosure is thin and sounds like an empty beer can when you tap on it. Deadening it, along with the rest of the...

More sound deadening. I didn’t even try for 100% CLD coverage here...there’s way more than enough. There’s a LOT of crap behind these panels too. I spent more time removing stuff than putting in CLD and CCF. I added CLD and CCF to the rear ac ducting...they definitely needed some mass added and...

There’s no difference.

He asked specifically about power. There are a multitude of physical differences.

Could be a number of things...from manufacturing tolerances to the way you have your audio settings set up. I’ve checked quite a few...it’s the door panels.

Tuning

It’s not a defect, it’s caused by the door panels. If you were to remove one, hold it up and tap the panel with a knuckle you would hear all the rattles due to the way the panels are constructed. Those rattles translate into audible noises when the speakers are working. It can be fixed with a...

Nope. Oem mufflers aren’t a restriction.

No retune will be needed with his mods.

You won’t pick up a single thing from the Borla exhaust but a change in sound. It’s the same size tubing as OEM.
