Current ride is 07 RDX and Accord. Wife wants to trade accord on new TL but now I'm not sure. Will it be worth the wait for type S or test drive the new triple cross over and see what Acura stuffs under that hood?

the new tsx will have the TL v-6 stuffed in it.. that will probably give you the better power to weight ratio.. plus it will be cheaper then a TL i would expect

i've been getting that call for a while too even though i push a button to deny the offer and take my name off the list. they start with a phrase something like "this is your final warning"


chris, have you bought the sound deadner yet?
i was thinking to buy some cheaper versions of dynamat and found this reveiw.

http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/

bascially this guy does several tests and chose RAAMmat BXT as best performance/$$$

second skin looks very high quality but little expensive too.
i just ordered a roll of raammat bxt for $130 shipped. a roll is 100sqft and price is very good compared to 36sqft of dynamt for $130.

I'm just afraid that raammat may not deaden the sound enough. You TL guys already have fairly decent sound deadening stock. Us TSX'ers as you know have like none lol!

But at the price of raammat I can double it up...

they're pretty close but on the tsx thread someone added in the raammat and only noticed a 2db drop and felt dissappointed:

i remember him. he was bit hardcore
result would be pretty much the same even if he used something else.
try doing combination of dampening mat and ensolite from raammat.

Rammaudio is located out in st. helens. Maybe we can get on a couple rolls and some ensolite and one of us drive out there to save on shipping costs?


Chris, how does next monday sound to you? around your lunch time if that works best for you.

Well if all of us went in together on some raammat and picked up in St. Helens we could try and convince them to give us a good deal since it's such a bulk purchase... what do you all think? We'd need serious people with cash in hand but we could probably get alot of mat and some ensolite for a good deal.

Kyle - yeah monday works for me, I usually head to lunch at 11:15, does that work for you?

I don't need all that much since the Prelude itself isn't very big. The trunk is already done, I'd be doing just the floor and doors
