How much weight does it actually add?
I have done my doors and most of the trunk on mine and the rolls were not that heavy.

I'm not sure exactly how much. I think the bulk packs were 40-50lbs each and the door kit was around 30lbs. Then agian I'm not sure. Not alot of people like to add around 100lbs to their car. They're usually trying to get rid of it.

how much of a difference is that. I mean does it muffle your exhaust as well as the road noise. Is it like family car quiet. Maybe if I did that my wife would stop *ithchin about my car.

With headers, no cats and a Hooker catback and the cutout closed it's pretty quiet. Like I said though, my whole entire car is done. Including some outside panels. It also makes a big difference on how your stereo sounds. I had to go through and readjust everything. I also have a huge stereo set-up in my car.

I am highly interested in doing this, so you put it on the doors, floor board, trunk, and rear quarter panels. Also were is the best/cheapest place to get it. Went to the web site little bit higher than you stated

WhiteRhino, can you send me a PM on what you used and where you got it?
I need to add some to the back half of my car. My 3.73's make a little noise so the front, top and rear sheetmetal around the axle needs it the most in my case. Then we'll see what the next loudest source of noise is.

I've already done the doors. They should be the first thing that everyone does. Do the whole inner door panel and if you have extra, add it to the middle of the outer door panel. Not only will it reduce outside noise, but it will make your door speakers sound louder and better.

Lot of good info here:
