Here's my long overdue FR on Autofoam. I did Autofoam quite some time back probably Jan 07 after taking in the advise from Bro Fireclone and Spectre. I did the undercarrige and sills only. As experienced by bro fireclone, the full effects of the autofoam only surfaced after a few days of "sunning".


The effects are especially apparent when traveling on those roads paved with those stupid patterned tiles at most new hdb driveways and over humps. The whole car feels more solid and stiff. On sweeping corners the car rolls less and feels more 1 piece (Those who has felt the differences between a car with roll-cage or strut bars and a stock one will know what i mean). There is also a side-effect (abet a good one) of some sound insulation transmited through the hollow sills and undercarriage.

My verdict is this
Cons
1. It is not cheap
2. If you are looking to improve handling alone, at the same price, an anti-roll bar, braces and struts or suspension will definitely make more difference.
3. If you are looking to improve sound insulation alone, at the same price, a full implementation of sound dampening/insulating mats will definitely make more difference

Pros
1. Its treating the chassis. This amounts to a cumulative effect of both handling and comfort with sound insulation. For the price its something which is hard to beat, its a soildness which you would have to experience yourself, as mentioned above, bros with experience with re-enforced chassis will know what i mean. I did NOT Autofoam my pillars, which I expect would have more effect than the other parts I mentioned.
2. It is a cheaper alternative to complement your mods after you have already done up your handling as compared to erm...spot welding your chassis or adding a roll cage.
