Dynamat in the trunk

As you can see the DB difference is not significant, but you can hear/feel that the car is isolated and the exhaust sound is toned down/muted.

Anyhow, I'm happy with the results and would recommend to anyone to isolate their trunk if they have noise issues. I would suggest cheaper solution than Dynamat, if you can find one.

How about a road noise test?

As cooltoy said, it's too late for that. However, I've applied dynamat only where most of the noise is coming from - trunk of the car. Road noise didn't bother me before, but I'm sure if you want to significantly reduce it, you'll have to take off the carpet, door panels, trunk panels and apply some form of isolation. As I said before, my exhaust noise in the car is more tamed right now.
Keep in mind I have stock headers, HFC, and the full Tomei exhaust. I can't wait to see what my car will sound with the Z1 headers and TPs.
