Ok if i remove all OEM stuff and say lose 10 kg and add new stuff and add 15 kg, it's only 5kg extra. I can live with that. Will fill half the tank at the time, not full tank i do all the time... | |

quote: 10kg is a lot considering the small amount of material it was. Plus add all the foam deadening from the car, the carpets, the trim, the sunroof etc etc. All adds up, and was quicker to remove than it would be to lose the equivalent weight. Besides, I was merely giving the OP an idea of why people are asking why he wants to add more weight - if the patchy OE bonded stuff equals around 10kg, and he intends to evenly coat the majority of the interior, it will be a considerable increase... | |

I removed over 10kg alone from removing the factory bonded deadening which isn't a constant spread like you intend to apply... | |

Do you drive loads? I think that would annoy me after a while unless in the middle of nowhere and had to use B roads only to get anywhere.. | |

Mine is loud as fuck, it has no deadening inside what so ever, floors, roof, inside rear quaters, up behind the dash and everywhere else is just bare panels. I quite like it though :lol: | |

Well the power is doubled now, and car should be fast enough for me anyway. | |

I also agree with John, no point adding a more powerfull engine and then adding weight, you want to be losing it if anything :lol: proper deadening throughout the car will weigh more than just a few kg's aswell. | |

Would that not slightly defeat the purpose of fitting a bigger engine? | |

Wickes flashing tape will do the job... will need to double up the layers, but far cheaper than "Brown Bread" and "Dynamat" etc... | |
