dynomat i think adds a bit of weight. It helps greatly in reducing noise and if you have a good stereo sytem, it improves sound quality imensely. But if you are trying ot avoid loud exhaust notes...it won't help 'that' much.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!
it does reduce noise from where ever you lay it i have it done to my daily driver i have a 2001 corolla and i ahve the whole car dynomated for my system if and i seriously doubt the dynomat will add extra wieght to actually slow you down if i were you i would only use extreme dynomat not regular dynomat not premium(premium is ok)
becouse when the sun hits the car it heats it back up and it will start to peel off slowly.

It sure helps the driver's door closing problem. No more need to slam the door shut. And it has a nice thud sound now.

A high-end audio store which installs car audio will sell it. I think I used Extreme. It is self-stick and has a foil front. The main reason I did it was to add a little weight to the doors so they will close. It works.

Try www.mcmaster.com search for sound insulation and look for the adhesive backed styles.
