Saab 9-3 - StP Soundproofing | Audio-Equip

Saab 9-3 Sport Sedan 1.8t 2008
This Saab has been completely soundproofed except for the roof with StandartPlast materials, the best in the market.
The first layer (StP Aero) has been applied to the entire vehicle sheet from the inside. This first layer eliminates vibrations from drive rolling and engine for example. Therefore in this way we reduce much of the road noise caused by vibrations.
The functionality of the second layer (StP Accent and StP Biplast) is absorbing both sound and cold and heat, therefore we have applied StP Accent on the entire floor surface as well as the second layer inside the doors. In the wheel arches we have applied the highest range of StP, the Biplast Diamond Wave 15, which promises to be the most efficient in terms of sound absorption, and the truth that has pleasantly surprised us. We have also used this material in the door panels, thus achieving surprising exterior noise insulation.
The third layer is StP NoiseBlock and is only determined on horizontal surfaces or with few degrees of inclination, since it is a material that has a high weight and although the adhesive is very strong, it could reach a peel off on vertical surfaces. This layer is made of asphalt cloth and almost completely blocks the sound from outside. It is important to know that it works together with StP Accent or StP Biplast, since it requires that some of these materials attenuate the external sound and avoid contact with the metal sheet to perform its function.
Conclusions
Worth it? Flatly yes.
The reduction of outside noise is very impressive, and even more so the road noise.
According to the measurements, the road noise has been reduced 18dB (+6dB is double of the sound sense).
A practical example;
Before having a correct conversation with the copilot circulating at 120 km / h, you need to raise your voice above normal to be able to understand each other, and now in the same conditions you can talk almost whispering.

Cool!

[@carlossevillanor]

Genial video, creo que de los mejores que hay en insonorización (me visto mil..). Una pregunta, me gustaría insonorizar los arcos de rueda por fuera para reducir el sonido de rodadura. ¿Habría que poner STP Aero en los plásticos de los arcos de rueda y en la chapa?. ¿O pegarlos a la chapa podría provocar oxido?. ¿O incluso seria innecesario si se insonoriza bien la parte interior?. Gracias por compartir

Whats the cost for these stp products

[@audioequipspain]

Hi! There are 3 product ranges of different prices, but to get an idea, the Diamond line used in this Saab (high range), the total cost has been approximately $ 500 (Floor + wheel arches + trunk + 4 doors).
Regards!

@@audioequipspain cuz in the vdeio it only cover the floor wheel and trunk but not 4doors, so -18dB are include doors cover or not? thanks!

[@audioequipspain]

Any questions?

What's the green film you used in the beginning for?
The comparison is amazing! Will try this sometime. Great job!

[@audioequipspain]

​@@NahasMajeedA Thank you very much for your comments. Yes, the difference is amazing!
The green film is an adhesive protector for bodywork of the brand "Coplast". It is perfect to not scratch the car while you work, and when you remove it leaves no residue.

I noticed that my 2008 Saab SC already has a layer of soundproofing. I've read that most people thought it was a waste of time, negligible difference.

[@ejgrae1989]

Holy moly how much did this cost 😵😵😵

[@audioequipspain]

Thank you for your comment.
Standard Plast (StP) is a material that, depending on the areas/parts you want to insulate, the price varies. You can soundproof the doors, floor, ceiling, wheel arches, dashboard, etc.
