[QUOTE="Lee36328, post: 57556, member: 113"] A fellow member planning an ICE upgrade asked me to list the benefits i've felt since foaming.... i think my response wud be useful to be listed here as well... The improvements are almost to numerous to list them all... but i will try.... 1. The chassis is stiffened 2. Because of 1, less noise and vibration are transmitted thruout the body and cabin 3. Because of 2, cabin is quieter 4. Because of 1 and 2, car HANDLES like its forged from A SOLID BLOCK OF METAL! Hardly any flex or distortion when you push it around bends... 5. Because of 4, all four tyres are implanted more firmly on the road at all times, improving your road grip! I figure I do not need the rear x brace now, since my car is so stiff throughout... Check with the guys who've tried my car.... and were completely blown away by the handling and the quietness.... I offer a ride to anyone whose not convinced... I went the whole hog and got the entire package.... A pillar, B pillar, the chassis all the way from the engine bay, to underneath the cabin, to the boot... basically I foamed everything Desmond could foam... ha ha ha! Total package? Less than 2k... bargain w him... he is a fair man... and a true gentleman.... Another advantage... foaming chassis at the boot section will actually REDUCE oversteer!!! can you beat that? Ha.. ha.. What other mod at the price will give you all the benefits? If you are into sound proofing for ICE purposes, my STRONGEST recommendation, check out Desmond at KL Auto as well.... he's got loads of soundproofing products.... he was a regular champion at ICE competitions... some of his customers spent 20-30k on ICE alone.... (not me ok? i'm broke...) PM me if you don't have Desmond's contact In case you are wondering, I am not on commission, nor is the guy my relative, nor am I going after his younger sister.... I am just goddamn satisfied with his products, his sincerity and his knowledge.... and I WANT ALL MEMBERS TO BENEFIT FROM THIS!!! Hope that helps... cheers..! By the way, the reason I am growing more and more HYSTERICAL about this is.... MY CAR IS STILL GETTING HARDER BY THE DAY!!! (It takes 2 weeks to cure completely.... so I have another week before I get the final full effect....) Will give my final full report at the end of the two-week curing period.... [/QUOTE]
