QUOTE(jacky91 @ Apr 19 2018, 12:26 PM) Foaming your chassis means, giving moisture an opportunity to be trapped by the foam. Trapped moisture means rust, rust means weaker chassisWithout understanding actual car's design. Foaming cannot reduce noise and increase stiffness effectively. Also, foam is NOT even close to being as hard as steel. When you say comfort, I presume you want reduced noise, noise rarely travel through the chassis into cabin. Sound travels in a straight line and radiates from source. Foaming your chassis is like putting a finger few centimeters away from your ear, trying not to hear the radio. |

QUOTE(Drian @ Apr 20 2018, 11:40 AM) Everyone has their own opinions but how many are accurate? Just to add. The vehicle in question is unknown. There is an increment in Modal frequency but what does that mean to consumers? Structure being strengthen doesnt equate to a quieter car. A car manufacturer may have intentionally reduced strength for a specific section to reduce weight and to transpose noise.http://www.mwsmotorsports.com/z32/foam/1999-01-1785.pdf This is an SAE paper that talks about foaming the chassis and they have done measurement to measure the stiffness before and after and it does show that it improve stiffness. However this does not show if autofoam can increase stiffness as much as what is written in the paper as the density is unknown. Until we can understand each and every car's intended design, foaming with the "one size fit all" method doesnt work. Referring to Autofoam, not to your opinion |

QUOTE(Jedi @ Jan 22 2019, 09:22 PM) so I wish to ask those who has applied Autofoam, Waste of money. say I have UR bars stage 1 installed, will applying autofoam go hand in hand or make the ride super stiff? ![]() Bec if we talk about chassis strengthening then the Track Package is something to do. (absorbing dmg from collisions would be most effective based on the graph) for the noise package I understand desmond has another rm 2250 package Why foaming is not done by manufacturer? Because steel is stronger than foam. but, if you want to spend it, go ahead. Foaming is snake oil, like adding oil additives (if you use branded oil and your car has no inherent issues). |

QUOTE(ayamxxx @ Jul 28 2019, 08:06 PM) This AF is totally expensive and permanent. What if we want to sell the car, totally add certain criteria of difficulties. AgreedThat bobby car reviews is poor, he will said everything great for the free car and all sponsor products. That kl auto is a best salesman person. I think Bobby has sold his soul. He used to be very opinionated but now, every car is good. Every product people recommend is good. Come on, foaming chassis? Do they know where the weak points of the car is? Joke Bobby is just a platform for advertisement Dont get me started on Desmond the snake oil salesman |
