Help/hurt performance? Seriously? If your car is so lame that 6 pounds of felt positioned 5" off the ground is going to make a noticeable difference in acceleration or handling, then you have one sad ass car. Crank that up to 40 pounds and you *might* have something. I'm not picking on anyone specifically here, just in general, sometimes people here act like there's a secret underground competition to see who can make their 240sx the most unbearable, undriveable pile of crap that will make it to work and back. It's friggen sound deadening. Geo Metro's come with it stock! There's more weight in OEM paint on my car than there is in sound deadening I've added. Then again, you're talking to the guy that welded on a 5 pound muffler to quiet down his external wastegate dump.
