Des would tell you that the noise of the Wira is frontal and would provide appropriate solutions for your car which includes soundproofing that concentrates on the front area

Just got my car front doors installed with their white magic mat. I must admit that I now don't hear external road noise coming in from the door area, very, very noticeable when you put your ears beside the door before and after doing it.

Desmond's guys knew exactly which spot to put the mats, and also told me that certain spots of the door panel must not be insulated else the tire noise'll be amplified.

Thumbs up mate, looking forward to continue eliminating road noise and taking silence a step further.

Btw, Desmond, heard a Blue Kelisa went there to do the comfort package on the same morning ah? Huhu... that guy sat my car the other day wink.gif.

am currently at KL Auto smile.gif. Did GSI Soundproofing on my doors and
I got immediate difference in terms of noise intrusion biggrin.gif.

I thought I was satisfied, and needed to test for a week. But Desmond immediately told me that the cabin of the car was roo 'enclosed' and had to do something else.

I guess I'm gonna be more than satisfied tongue.gif

simple. i suggest you slap on the same tires on another gen2 and then you'll realise the difference on the same highway.

Well, it depends on what car I guess. There are improvements,...noticeable,...but not tremendous improvements.

Over super smoothly tarred surface or new tarred surface, ...original quiet,...with SP and Autofoam,...much more quiet.

Over coarse and rough road surface,....with Autofoam and SP also damn noisy if original is noisy. Autofoam is supposed to kill off those resonance and vibrations,...but in actual fact, the effect quite minimal in this area here.

For me, at the end of the day,...most important lesson is before doing it,....do a comparison test, don't rely on internet opinions.

reading from the above posts, Desmond has already offered cuckoo bird a visit to troubleshoot what really is going on.

cuckoo, im not taking sides but I think you shouldn't post what you posted, but post it ONLY after you go back to desmond and that he isn't able to rectify you problem. Or you already went to him?

for those of you who done autofoam with KL Auto, have you seen the foam itself in your car? I did on mine, and the damn foam is soft.. and its not rock hard like KL Auto's demo foam in the shop.

I feel cheated smile.gif cause what i was shown and what i got is vastly different. I didn't feel any different with my car, did the comfort package.

The Demo one as probably blue in color that is only meant for the door sills. put that into your subframes and you'll have a super rock-hard non flexing chassis transmitting tons of vibration. Softer one would be suitable for the subframe aka comfort package. To be clear and back to square one? He uses TWO types


Added on November 9, 2011, 2:17 pmon the other hand, I'd agree with vr2turbo. Why don't you just go ask him directly instead of trying to feel cheated?>
