Ok if you got the budget to play with. Been quoted at almost rm4.5k for overall sound deadening all out for my accord and not the foam thing. Foam can effects car suspension behaviour as been told.

What workshop doing sound deadening?

I decide to open sound deadening workshop but no money

This type of price list is their reference for them to play their negotiation game. Now with internet, just type in a few strokes and you get some further details. As i mentioned earlier, go mudah.my website check. Those listing that the prices are lower are real, you can call to confirm and quite a number of forummers here did get deals as listed in the website.

Don't buta buta accept the price they give, don't need to give in to the pricing like on the spot (unless emergency lar), ask a few shops to compare, check website. If the pricing around 10%-15% difference from the lowest you seen, then you can consider the factor of convenience and familiarity.

And one more thing, ps4 is not known to be comfort/quiet tyre, although the performance is no doubt top notch. The best balance of price, performance and refinement now is the new falken fk510 in my opinion. Alternatively is the v12evo2 from hankook. If your budget is a little limited, please don't just solely think of the ps4 (despite prices are dropping) as these 2 listed are the best alternatives.

1 more thing i remembered, you mentioned about your brakes. Before sinking big money into a 4 pot set for the front, why not just get an upgraded brake pad a try, something like the the project mu bspec series :
http://www.project-mu.co.jp/en/products/pad_bspec.html

Higher drag coefficient and temperature limit, means better bite and less fade.

A local seller you can enquire from :

Sounds very affordable if diy. But i dont have the tools or the experience to do so. Shops so far quoted me for 4.6k for full treatment.
1. door treatment rm 880
2. aero sealing for door frames, sills and bonnet rm 240
3 lower firewall, kick panels and full floorpan. rm 1880
4. rear inner wheel well and trunk floor. rm 1880

Sounds expensive to me. I try ask car accessories shop if can do for me. Probably will be way cheaper.

Can try hankook v12evo2 or falken fk510, can somewhat improve the harshness. Just don't expect too much as this car's NVH isn't as good as other similar segment models.

Play around with this website, you get to have a rough guide wide the tyre is acceptable :

It is is better to compare apples to apples. If I say my Mazda 6 2013 have difference means it is only applicable to the similiar model. That is why Desmond never force you to do any of the package. U can stop when you feel it's necessary. The problem is knowing when to stop xd.

Hi, Might to share how the car look like on 18 inch rim? Im thinking of whether to remaining 19inch lightweight wheels or down size to 18. will 18 inch decrease the handling ?

I see, do you sell it? maybe used unit with repainting is good enough for me, not sure is true or not someone say if change to 6pots the original brake pump will no sufficient enough to power the caliper. some say if the brake piston area is close to original piston area it will not be an issues.

the mazda 6 doesn't generate enough power to benefit from a limited slip differential ? O_o

I don't see any point to getting one installed if its even readily available.
