[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 10434070, member: 6247"] This statement would be true for a car recently converted to a stiff coil-over suspension. :read: But in this case, this is unfortunately a NVH misconception that [B]MANY[/B] people have. Please don't think that I am trying to single you out because I'm not. I'm simply trying to explain what is really going on. Some people are under the mistaken impression that the Delrin control arm bushings and UHMW subframe bushings add elevated NVH levels in the passenger compartment. [B][SIZE="4"]NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH!!!![/SIZE] [/B] There is hardly any increase in NVH through these components. The only component in this kit that noticeably elevates NVH levels are the front diff mounts. And the higher the speed, the faster the gears are being meshed together, which in turn would raise NVH levels to the maximum noise level. So the OP was correct in trying to spin them exceedlingly fast in order to make them generate the maximum noise. He stated he heard no difference in noise levels and if you read the FAQ on our site: [url=http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/faqs.htm]FTBR Frequently Asked Questions[/url] you'd see we state that we get feedback from people that run the full gamut of NVH levels. We've heard from customers: "I hear no difference in NVH levels" to: "The NVH levels are elevated a little but it's hardly noticeable", to: "Yes, it's kind of loud but it's worth it", to: "OMG my wife can't stand it". It's a very subjective question to ask a group of people who vary greatly in opinions. :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
